Do I have to put USA too? because I visited 3 times

I don't think living in a country = visiting (as tourists). I believe it applies only when one stayed abroad for at least a year (studying, working etc.). I don't know why would they care to read about anyone's tourist trips. But correct me if I'm wrong.

The form says "list all the counries you have entered in the last 10 years". Doesnt say countires you lived in.. I also think they dont care about our holiday trips but i believe that's what they ask for. Maybe what they are interested in is the destinations and unusual patterns etc.

It is not where I breathe but where I love that I live.

I reckon its safest to list them all to our best knowledge :unsure:

Definitely list them all. They're probably looking for countries they deem unsavoury so they can ask about them later. I wouldn't stress about it though - it's easy to leave out a trip by mistake, particularly when travelling to countries that are nearby/visa-less/stamp-less. It's definitely more than about living in different places, though - so no, they don't care if you went on vacation, but they aren't ask what you were doing there on the form, which is why you list the lot...

Just the same.

Don't worry too much about it. Try to be accurate, but they won't ever check the coutries you visited (specially european ones inside shengen... )

Good luck in your visa journey!

From the day we sent I-129F to the day I recieved my K-1: Exactly 9 months
I am the benifeciary
