Question regarding DS 160

Recommended Posts

I have working on H1B visa in USA since December 2010. I have to not travelled out of USA since then. I am filling DS 160 for H1-B stamping.

I need help with these questions?

(1) Have you made specific travel plans?

I can answer YES as I know my return flight and I am returning with my family.

 

I know my

DATE of ARRIVAL in US

Arrival Flight

Arrival City

 

But what about: How to answer these?

Date of Departure from US - don't know as may travel or get H1-B extended

Departure Flight (If Known)

Departure City - Not know, what if one moves

Provide the locations you plan to visit in US - should it be local cities/suburbs where one will visit with work and shopping - how do you answer this asno plans where one will visit or go for Vacation?

If I answer Have You Made Specific Travel Plans as NO then I answer as follows:

Intended Date of Arrival: But I have actual booked tickets

Intended length of Stay in US: x months (as per my H1-B validity)

Address where you will stay in US: Home address in US

 

I am answering Other Persons Traveling with You: Spouse and Kid

 

I have specific plans with booked tickets to come to USA with family so I know my companions but I don't have specific plans about departure city, flight, date of departure or places I will visit? So how should I answer this question.

Please Help!

 

(2) Have you travelled to any countries/regions within the last five years?

I have not travelled out of USA for last 6 years. So how do I answer this question?

Thanks.

Do you have an approved I140? Because if not, you wouldn't be able to extend the H1.

The form has fields that really only apply to visitors, so just write NA in there. They understand that some things don't apply to people who go for an H1 visa. Just use common sense.
