MarcRosie Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 (edited) In Chengdu now! Good food and great people. Filling out the DS-260 and it's asking for the Beneficiary ID #. Where will I find this. All fees have been paid. Processing electronically. Have GZO #. Also, the 260 says that you can only send a copy of the long form birth certificate. A short form will not be accepted. We have the official copy of her daughters birth certificate that shows where she was born and the names of both parents. This is one of the things they say a long for has. SO I assume we have the long form? Short form says just the child's name is listed. Just want to make sure. Thanks!

Rosie and Marc Check the context to make sure, but I believe they'd be looking for the A#, which at this point, I'm pretty sure you don't have. Maybe Dan'll have a specific answer. The birth certificate you need is the white booklet, issued by the Gong Zheng Chu The documents required are the GongZhengShu 公证书 Sample application for documents (your province or hukou may vary):http://www.bnpo.gov....72115331419.doc http://www.bnpo.gov....ide/detail1.aspA notarial document will be in the standard white notarial booklet, have an official red seal, an English translation, and an attestation to the true translation. The comments on the DS-260 are generic, applicable to ANY country. I don't think China issues anything which can be called a short-form birth certificate. Just be sure you have the white booklet format. Link to comment
MarcRosie Posted February 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Thanks Randy! This is what it says on the NVC site...... The DS-260 must be completed and submitted online through the Consular Electronic Application Center (CEAC). To log-in to CEAC, you will need the following numbers:Your NVC case numberYour NVC invoice ID numberYour Beneficiary ID numberThese numbers are noted on the letter or e-mail you received from the NVC.Looked at all letters and emails and nothing that states it's a Beneficary ID #. So if it's the A# for sure we don't have that yet. Link to comment

So if it's the A# for sure we don't have that yet. As near as I can tell from VJ, that would be your Case ID - the GUZ or GZO number minus the three letters. Link to comment
MarcRosie Posted February 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 Found it! It was in an email, I just missed it. But it is a separate number. Not the GZO # minus the GZO. 1 Link to comment
