  1. OK, I give up on looking and I'm just going to ask you folks. Sorry if this information is posted somewhere else already and I just haven't found it... but I haven't found it. My question is: Which US embassy/consulate do I need to go to in China for my DCF? In all the documentation and instructions it seems like it's very important to go to the right consulate -- the one that has jurisdiction over your location -- and yet it's not easy to find out which consulate that is. In fact, I seem to be finding conflicting information about the jurisdictions of the various consulates, and it probably has to do with them offering different services than each other, so while you might be in one jurisdiction for some particular service, maybe you are in another jurisdiction for something else. At first I was thinking I would have to go to Guangzhou, but now I'm starting to think that's not correct. I think I was getting confused because ultimately her interview will be in Guangzhou, but that doesn't necessarily mean that's where I file the initial documents in order to get her the interview. We live in China, and want to do DCF. Of course, the official websites don't know that term. So what I'm looking for, first of all, is where to file an I-130 (right?). Then, at some point after that, she would have to do the interview in Guangzhou (I think?). So I think that my question is: where do I go to file the I-130? My wife's hukou is in Zhejiang and we live in Zhejiang. It seems like that (might?) make us under the Shanghai consulate's jurisdiction, but it looks like the Shanghai consulate doesn't do I-130s. So maybe I actually have to go to Beijing. But I'm not at all sure about this, and I don't want to take a trip all the way to Beijing and then find out I'm in the wrong place. Surely this question -- of where the consular jurisdictions are -- is one that others have run into before. So, what do you say? A little help? Thanks
