DS 230-Question 29-Address of Child

 Share

4 posts in this topic

Recommended Posts

Hello.

I am getting a head start on the DS 230...my trouble is with question #29, which states:

List Names, Dates and Places of Birth and Addresses of ALL children.

My husband (beneficiary) has a daughter. She is already a permanent resident in the USA. Although we won't be petitioning her, I know she must be listed in this section, but we do not have an address (due to baby mamma drama). Is it possible to write unknown or just the city and state? Will that create any problems?

Thanks for any help!

Hello.

I am getting a head start on the DS 230...my trouble is with question #29, which states:

List Names, Dates and Places of Birth and Addresses of ALL children.

My husband (beneficiary) has a daughter. She is already a permanent resident in the USA.

If you are 100% sure of the city and state, write the city and state. If you are less than 100% sure, then you would write "last known" before writing the city and state. If a specific address is asked for (i.e. number and street), but you don't know it, then you don't know it and would write "unknown."
