What should I enter for 'place of issue' and 'city of birth' on the DTV application for the LA consulate?

For the LA consulate, has anyone who's gotten approved for the DTV, what did you use for the "place of issue" and "city of birth". I've searched around and got mixed answers. Some say for the place of issue use USA, United States, or United States Department of State. For city of birth some say use the state as in the passport and others say both city and state. Should you use city [space] state, ex Seattle Washington or just stick with the state (as seen on the passport) even though it asks for the city? Any advice would be appreciated.

Update: Thanks everyone. For other people's reference this worked for me.

City of Birth: I put down the state as my passport only shows the state

Place of Issue: United States
