So, in filling out the DS 230, I accidentally added an address my husband actually hasn't lived at. Is it possible to draw a line through that on the form, or am I going to have to fill it all out again, print it again, and then send it overseas to him again?

It's one mistake, one line. Will him crossing it out and maybe initialing that, affect the process?

My opinion is that it's better to complete a new form.

Does your husband have access to a printer? If so, fill out a new one, scan it, email it to him. He can then print it out, sign it, and mail it back to you.

Thanks for moving this to the right spot!

Yeah, lack of printer was why he wasn't just filling it out himself. If he had one, he wouldn't have had to wait for me to fill it out, print it, and send it to the wrong address. Then, fill it out again, but with more wrong information and send it yet again. This one was the 3rd time I filled out this form & it turns out I still left one mistake. I guess 4th time's the charm?

I just wish this form was one you could fill out and save your work, rather than one you had to fill out and print in one go, because I've got to start again and I'm nervous I'll make yet another mistake.

I have been saving my work on it for quite some time, and changing and saving, etc etc.

But, I have acrobat, which you probably don't.

just draw a line to cross it out and send it to nvc. However; print a new copy and remove / fix ur mistake and send it to benificary so he/she can takre it to interview if there's an issue. I had similar situation and it worked :)

Does your husband have access to a printer? If so, fill out a new one, scan it, email it to him. He can then print it out, sign it, and mail it back to you.

Or fill it out again on a computer with the full version of Adobe installed, then email the completed PDF, for printing, signing and return to you.
