Abstract of proposed collection: 

Department of State consular officers 

use Form DS–230 (Application for 

Immigrant Visa and Alien Registration), 

in conjunction with a personal 

interview and other requirements set 

forth in 22 CFR part 42, subpart G, to 

elicit information necessary to ascertain 

the applicability of the legal 

requirements to issue an immigrant visa. 

The information requested on the form 

is limited to that which is necessary for 

consular officers to determine the 

eligibility and classification of aliens 

seeking immigrant visas to the United 

States efficiently. A consular officer is 

unable to adjudicate such visas without 

collecting this information. 

Methodology: 

The DS–230 is available electronically 

via the internet and is downloaded, 

completed online, printed and 

submitted to the National Visa Center 

(NVC). The web address where the DS– 

230 can be accessed is http://

travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/

forms.html.
