In part 2, information about the immigrant. 

 

What do I put for the address? It seems like the format is designed to only work for a USA address. So do I put my wife's Brazilian address or the address where she will live when she moves to the USA?

Hi Isaac. I put my fiance's address in Cuba. I figured it made sense since he'll still be residing there until they give him the visa and he officially moves to the US.

It's always so difficult to enter a foreign address into a form like this.. 

 

what's the difference between a postal code and a zip code? 

 

her brazilian state is bahia. Do i put bahia under "province"?

 

 

It truly is. I had a difficult time figuring out how to put a Cuban address in the forms as well until I had help from someone else who petitioned their Cuban fiance.

 

I would recommend filling it out like you did on the application form that you initially sent in. But, I believe Bahia can be put in as the Province and if she lives in a municipal city, or something like that I would put that in the City spot and then the Country would be Brazil. Maybe also reaching out to someone in the South American portion of the forums can help too. They may be able to give you a sample of what they sent in.

 

Here's a Brazil thread, it's a lot of pages and in Portuguese but it's a start and maybe you can find some more detailed info in there.

Answers:

  • None
  • You can do that OR you can write see attached on the form itself and write out the address on a separate sheet of paper.
