OF-169 Questions

[brutrigem]

Hi, my SO and I are currently filling out the P3 paperwork (yes! almost there, sort of) and have found some questions, which I pray the nice folks on this forum can help us answer, here goes:

1) Do we need to send in both the Chinese and the English copies of OF-169?

2) On OF-169, do we check the boxes for ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS and RESUMES? ( Marriage-based immigrant visa petition counts as family-based immigrant visa petition, no?)

Yes you fill out in both languages and yes, you check off the original documents. We left blank the Resumes, since they did not apply to my wife's circumstances.

1. I have heard of some sending back just the english version, but I recommend you send both back...

 

2. Family-based vs Marriaged-based appears to be used interchangeably... Once at the consulate, it is often suffixed with 'application' (instead of petition) and at AOS with 'case', but even this appears a little interchangeable...
