Hi everyone,

We received package three yesterday from the embassy in Dublin, I'm filling out the DS 230 Biographic data and I need some help.

question 14 says spouses maiden name or family name, then occupation etc.. do I fill this information out for my fiance? the word 'spouse' is throwing me because I thought a spouse was a husband.. and this is a fiance visa! and then it asks for marriage dates. So i'm very confused. it also says in question 31 to name the people from question 14 who will be accompanying you to the US. I know usually the fiance is already in the states, but in my case my fiance (USC) will be travelling with me as we have bnith been livng in Ireland.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The DS230 is used for some other visa types thats why it asks Q14.

If you are applying for a K-1 then you do not have a spouse, put 'NONE'.

I'm pretty sure Q31 refers to people like your children (if any) who will be applying to immigrate with the US with you. You're fiance is already a USC, you don't put his name there.

There are sample forms available here on VJ that helped me a lot :)
