Hi, I don't know if this is the place to ask questions for the I-601 form.
If not please direct me to the right forum.
My wife in Brazil was denied her Immigrant visa last Monday.
They gave her forms I-601 and I-212 to fill out and return to the embassy in August to start waiver proceedings.
The I-601 looks like it will be difficult.
I have looked over the I-601 and I-212 forms.
There are many places that I do not know what to fill in.
Simple things like on:
Form I-601:
Line A.8 (I-601) Date of Visa Application. I don’t know what date to put in, the date I sent the application to the NVC (DS-230 part 1)?
And line A.9. “Visa applied for at:” Do I put the NVC in Portsmouth New Hampshire where I sent the DS-230 forms, or the Rio Consulate?
Also on line 11:
Applicant was previously in the United States, as follows:
City and State From (Date) To (Date) Immigration status
I do not know what “immigration status” would be.
I talked to the USCIS, they were of little help and said an attorney, or “professional form preparers” might help.
She told me over the phone that the Immigration Status would be on her passport (in the visa parts?).
I not sure what “MY” immigrations status on line B.5. I am a U.S.Citizen (born and raised in the US)
#10. “Reason for inadmissibility”…..”Please include a statement explaining the acts, convictions, and medical conditions that make you inadmissible.”…
I suppose this can be gathered from any deportation documents she may have received, right?
On Form I- 212:
In the check boxes for #7. There is not a box to check for Voluntary Departure. She did leave on her own, so which one to check?
Also #2, I do not know if I should use the USCIS Receipt Number for our case, or if there is a number on deportation documents.
Thanks for bearing with me, sorry for so much at one time.
I would sincerely appreciate any help

PS.
Some background on my wife:
She was denied entry to the US a couple of year ago in Atlanta.
She may have worked while in the US on a tourist visa.
I don't know the details Yet!
