Pack 3 Forms

Yeah, I read on one of the millions of checklists on the embassy site that the DS-230 (part 2) was required, which I hadn't noticed or read before. As Nich-Nick said, both my fiance and Paul were asked for a copy. You definitely need it.

Nich-Nick isn't the one who said that. I don't think it's on any K1 instructions from London.

Part 2 is for immigrant visas like the CR1 where you are already married to a USC or employment visas How did you answer question 43? Do you want the Social Security Administration to issue you a card? They do that for CR1 and work visas because SS card are sent shortly after POE becaused they are entering the US already approved to work. That doesn't apply to K1s. Did you swear to and sign TWO sworn statements at the interview? One on p.4 of the DS-230 and one on DS-156K? I think the DS-156K (K as in K visa) is covering the things part 2 would for other visas.

But you guys have a choice now based on a couple of opinions.

Sorry, I meant to say Ameribrit.

You definitely DO need it at the interview. I can't remember where I saw it. It's mentioned on one of the checklists on the London Embassy site. They don't make it easy, do they?

I believe he answered yes to question 43...but he already has a SSN from studying here in 07 so maybe that has something to do with it. We weren't the only ones asked for it, though.
