Forms in Vietnamese

[Tuanv 2]

According to the guide on our site: "A few weeks after you have received your last Notice of Action indicating the approval and forwarding of your I-130 application to the NVC, the NVC will send your relative a packet of forms that you and your relative must fill out before your relative can be given an interview date with a consulate abroad. The packet will likely contain an Of-169 form, and an Of-230 part one and two forms that must be filled out by the intending immigrant. An I-864 form is also included that must be filled out by the petitioner (living in the US). The I-864 is the Affidavit of Support form that requires copies of the petitioners past 3 U.S tax returns (or tax transcripts which are free from the IRS) as well as any bank or financial records available (see the I-864 for exact requirements based on your case). The petitioner must make at least 125% above the U.S federal poverty to indicate to the U.S government that the intending immigrant will not become a federal charge to the government when he/she arrives in the U.S.. If the petitioner cannot meet these requirements, then he/she must still file an I-864, and find a joint sponsor who can meet the requirements on his/her own. When a joint sponsor is needed ,proof of their U.S citizenship or permanent residency is required. (i.e. copy of birth certificate, immigration status etc). The joint sponsor must be residing in the U.S, and he/she must also submit his/her past 3 years U.S tax returns along with bank or any other financial records available. The joint sponsor must submit his/her own I-864 form to accompany the petitioner's I-864 form."

Are there Vietnamese Of-169 form, and an Of-230 part one and two forms? Also, Can I fill the forms out for my wife and send them out from my home in the States?

Forms for HCMC can be found here. Some are in Vietnamese, some are not. The DS-230 is not and can be found elsewhere: http://photos.state.gov/libraries/hochiminh/174995/pdf/

Yes, you can fill out forms and then send them to your spouse to sign and so forth. On the DS-230, make sure she doesn't sign the second part.

Basically, download the forms you need on your computer, fill out the information for your wife (make sure she understands all the questions) and then send them to her. Don't forget to fill out your information as the sponsor and the person filling out the form(s), if applicable.

Cool thank. I probably fill the forms out on my computer and send it to her over e-mail. She can sign it then.
