DS-3032 Spouse Visa

[aquaa20 0]

Need some help in understanding who is supposed to fill the form DS-3032. I am doing the prep work and having hard time understanding who address and signature is required on the application (DS-3032).

Will it be the sponsor? Which is me in US.

or will it be my wife whom i have sponsored?

Please advise.

Also can my wife scan signed document and send it back or do i need to ask her to mail it?

No need to mail the form. Follow the instructions here exactly on how to EMAIL the form: http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/Email_DS-3032_form

And the form is "filled out" by the beneficiary (aka foreign spouse).

The beneficiary (your wife) is the person appointing the agent. If she is appointing you as the agent then that is what it should say.

If she is sending it by email it must be sent from her email address. Most persons on VJ send by email using the letter format below created by Ling Che:

Email DS-3032 form

Many members are having success in emailing the NVC to choose their agent instead of sending in the DS-3032 via regular mail. Sometimes NVC sends an automated response upon receiving the e-mail but many times this feature does not work.

NVC takes from a few days to 2 weeks to send an email confirming receipt of the DS-3032.

The email template below complies with NVC e-mail guidelines and the content of DS-3032 Form.

Have your foreign spouse (beneficiary) send an email to NVCINQUIRY@state.gov with the following contents:
