Found it!

(from the instructions I have printed with my sheet)

Fill this form out as if the child was filling it out. All answers are pertinent to the child. Always use the child’s birth first and middle names. Your child’s name does not change until he/she is legally readopted in the United States after you come home.

Part I

1. New Last Name (your last name) followed by Birth first and middle names.

2. Child's full birth name.

3. N/A or blank.

4. Date of birth (mm-dd-yyyy).

5. Child's age (if your child is a baby, write the word "months" leaving space to fill in the number when you travel as it may change).

6. Place of birth: If you look at your child's birth certificate or power of attorney, the municipality=city and the department=province.

7. Guatemalan.

8. Gender: check appropriate box.

9. Single, never married.

Thanks Julie,
I'm glad to see that I did it right. I was so nervous I don't want to screw anything up. Claire not that the questionaire has changed a bit so don't follow the numbers exactley has Julie has them. You can figure it out easily enough by reading the answers she gave.
