FILLED OUT WRONG DS-230!!!!

[BlessMeIndeed 0]

Hope all is well with everyone. I wanted to get feedback about the DS-230. I filled out the DS-230 02-2009 which it stated that it doesn't expire until 2012,but when I called the NVC to see if my case was completed I was told that my husband sign the wrong form and the one he sign is now obsolete and that he needs to sign form DS-230 02-2010 WTH,

I don't have a cover sheet with barcode and wanted to know how would I word the revised DS-230 (COVER SHEET) and who do I make Attn: to, and also once received how much longer does it take for case to complete, I pray that this doesn't slow us down from receiving a June interview. Thanks you in advance for your feedback...

Hmmm.. where did you get this 2009 DS230 version? I hope the one on the Dept of State website is the current one.

I download it from the USCIS website. I was told that the newer DS-230 was revised, I really don't see a big difference in the older DS-230 except it ask you for your e-mail address,so please make a note that the new DS-230 form is DS-230 02-2010.

I know the feeling I'm also hoping for a June interview and it seem like it is taking forever. My DS230 was entered in the system on 4/12 and it isn't complete yet I hope I hear something soon. If it was RFe do you think I would have heard something already?

I almost had a panic attack when I read this! I went through my documents to see which form I had completed. I swear, going throug this process will make someone who hardly ever looks at details CRAZY!

[sachinky 465]

Is the new DS230 with or WITHOUT the email address?

That's the only difference I can see.

[bajankutie 4]

Ok so if my DS230was entered in the NVC system on the 12th how much long before I hear something anyone know?

[sachinky 465]

You should hear something by Wednesday-Friday!

Good luck!

i perfectly understand your comments. there is a fine line between anxiety, panic, and sillyness. i just joined today and already posted several questions some of which i get confused of because of "overthinking."

when i started my journey, i told myself keep it simple, read the instructions... then sometimes, the more you know, the more you get confused as well... good thing there's VJ.

So true triaxxx. I tried to "keep it simple" but I don't think the process will let you. There are things that aren't explicitly written that I've had to learn from VJ. Thank goodness for the site!

And I'm sorry BlessMeIndeed about the form. These hurdles are so frustrating but you will look back (hopefully) and the time will have seemed to fly by!

Yes My DS-230 was entered into the system on 4/13 and when I called the NVC on 4/19 I spoke with a live rep. and that's when I was told that the wrong form was filled out and that my husband would have to to fill out the newer form which is DS-230 02-2010, well I just mailed it again today so lets see how much longer this take because if I don't receive a June interview I'm going to go .Please make sure it's the form that states DS-230 02-2010 that asks for your e-mail address and also question #20 is trickie make sure the formate is 00/0000 to PRESENT starting at the age of 16 that was the other issue I was having so if your love one was born in April of "2000" it should be 4/2000 to Present as far the places they have lived of eles RFE HOPE THIS HELPS......
