  1. Hi, could I ask you a question regarding "given name" and "surname" on the DS-260 since you are immigrating from Portugal?

     

    In the US, the convention of First Middle Last makes it such that US passports list "Given name" as First Middle and "Last name" as Last. In Portuguese, however, all middle names are listed as "surnames" on the passport. In the DS-260, it says all information must match the passport/travel document. Does this mean that "Middle last" will have to be listed as my Portuguese husband's last name for his DS-260 form, even though his middle name is not really a 'surname'?

      well I think it should be surname ... my first name , my  lawyer put Paulo Cesar . and for the surname he put  Santos Araujo...

      Hi, thanks for the quick reply.  Do you have two first names then? Or is Cesar your middle name?

       

      Just a little confused, my husband's name is Marcelo Luc Simoes, and Luc has always been treated as his middle name, but on his passport his surname is listed as 'Luc Simoes'.
