Instructions and Help about changing ds 160 after booking appointment

Hello viewers this is gonna party and this is a quick video for my on my experience on ds-160 form for your visa interview and what happened if you made a mistake or missed out some important information and you realized it later on once you submit it submit the form so technically you can't go and edit the farm and the website will not love you to do any changes on it so because you once you have submitted it stands all done so so what do you do so pretty simple don't be back or don't worry Bob you can always create a new ds-160 and schedule your appointment to wherever the location you want to and okay that's good and okay hold on so what if I have already scheduled an appointment for whatever day and you realize that something is wrong in your ds-160 that's only to worry about because I can either ds-160 carry it with you along with your first year 160 just just in case because they're not going to use that but when you go in for your biometric test carry all this document e with you and they will make sure they will ask you for ds-160 and your passport and they will verify it when you are waiting for your slot and so to your biometrics officer not exactly just before your biometrics when you check-in they will ask you the documents and they will make sure that the information on your passport matches the T is 164 during the time make sure you clearly specify you want to use your T is 160 the new one not the old one again it's a new one forget about the old one just keep it aside give the new one and the officers will scan that and put the appointment sticker beside your passport on the top of it they will scan a new i th 160 bar code and create a new label and stick it on the top of the appointment bar curve so that when you go for an interview and the interviewer which will be most likely next day or whatever they use scheduled for the real interview they will scan that and they will see your actual ds-160 are the correct ds-160 form so that you don't need to worry about so the appointment and ds-160 are technically irrelevant means there will be a place where it will ask you to fill your ds-160 form when you make an appointment online but it doesn't really stop you there in case if you make any mistakes on ds-160 and if you only change it no problem make a new one make sure you fold all your information and you know just print it out and take it with you and tell them to update that and that will work fine and the good thing you can do is always when you fill the form make sure

FAQ

How do I edit information on a DS-160 form after having booked the appointment and paid the visa fee?
Happy news! Even after taking an appointment date, you can edit the details entered in the DS 160 form. This is regarding the B1/B2 (tourism) visa. I updated my DS 160 form more than a month after taking an appointment and just 3 days before the biometrics session. And I didn’t face any issues at the consulate. [May 2018]Also please not that it has been noticed that you might not be able to edit the new DS 160 application number of your “dependents” - (spouse/kids/relatives), if there are any, in the appointment confirmation page.Therefore, the following information is only for those applicants who are applying for US B1/B2 visa alone without any dependents. Only the main applicant’s can be changed.Note: You do not have to pay the application fees again if you do this.Log in to Nonimmigrant Visa - Instructions Page and retrieve your EXISTING APPLICATION.

How long can I take to fill and submit my DS-160 form after booking an interview appointment?
You must submit your DS-160 application online prior to making an appointment for an interview at the Consulate.Read here: Apply for a U.S. Visa
How long can I take to fill and submit my DS-160 form after booking an interview appointment for the US embassy?
You cannot obtain an interview date without first filling out and submitting the DS-160 online. The online form will keep for no more than 30 calendar days (regular days, not business days) and one can resume filling out the form from where they left off by entering a code that you are given after you log-out of the session where you’re filling out the DS-160.Example: you start filling out the form online today but you don’t finish because there are other things that have kept you from finishing. Simply save your progress (there should be a “save” button somewhere on each page of the online form) and you’ll be given a code. It is important that you save this code either in writing or taking a screenshot of it so that the next time you enter the site to fill out the DS-160 you just enter the code and the form will resume from where you left off, otherwise you’ll have to start over.The data is saved on the U.S. State Department servers (I assume, the data could be stored elsewhere) for no more than 30 days, so you have 30 days to complete the form from the day you start, though it doesn’t take more than an hour to complete (speaking from personal experience).
How do I correct errors in the DS-160 form after submission and appointment scheduled?
If you want to change details after submission and appointment scheduled in DS160 form, you can do it but will generate a new DS160 confirmation number. And you paid the fees and appointment against old DS160 confirmation number. You must bring the two DS160 confirmation number and show them at OFC and interview appointment.Not to worry.
Is there any way to know if you are eligible for drop box without booking an appointment with the visa consulate? I believe you will know when filling out the DS-160 form, but I want to confirm.
