Does DS-160 really expires after 30 Days??????

[Raghu_N]

Guys - I just need to know whether a saved (not submitted) DS-160 can be pulled after 30 days??

Yes... it does!!! Better save a copy on your computer, so that you can import whatever you already typed in.

After 30 days the saved DS 160 will be expired and cannot be retrieved if you did not submitt...

But what you can do is save the DS160 to a file...when you click save there's an option to save into file...it will be saved as .dat file...so after 30 days if you want to save some time for entering all details again...you can use the Retrieve Application From File option and load the saved file...but PLEASE BE AWARE THAT this option will give you a different DS160 Application Number...

I already booked my visa appointment. If it gives a different D160 application number can i change it in the appointment too?????
