DS 160 Application QUestion

[Naveen432]

Hi All,

 

I have started DS160  saved it at some point and i have not submitted it but booked an appointment using the confirmation number, it took some time in between to get an appointment on my specific dates but however when i opened the DS160 today i am not able to retrieve it says "No matching data found".

 

I am not sure should i start a new application again or please advice.

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

I was in a similar situation. Don't worry, all you have to do is start a new application and inform the visa consulate your new DS-160 confirmation number. They will update it from their side.

Thank you for the reply...

 

To inform them do i need to mail them at below emails or is there any other Process??

 

E-mail (Specific Visa Case Inquiries): vancouverNIV@state.gov
E-mail (Fiancé(e) visas): vancouverK@state.gov

Instead of emailing, you can actually call them at the number below:

 

Visa appointments in Canada: All services - including calling for information and scheduling an appointment - will be provided for no additional cost online at http://canada.usvisa-info.com/ or by calling  (703) 439-2319 (calling from the United States),

same situation. I think you just have to update the DS-160 # on your appointment (edit) section.

Not aware of if you have to inform someone.

Hi Naveen and Prawah,

 

I have a similar situation. i submitted my fully filled DS 160 on May 05 as I have my appointment on May 13, but i had to postpone my visa appointment and now i dont know if I need to update anything on my DS form. 

 

I can only think of the entry dates to canada, days of stay and those minor things. If I need to update them, i can only see one option- create a new DS form. If I create a new one, do I need to just edit the visa appointment and update the application number or do I call and email someone? Thank you for sharing the email and contact details in the thread. 

 

Thank you

So this is what i THINK,

 

Fill in a new DS-160 note down its confirmation # (Bar code) and update the # on your appointment page (EDIT section beside your name) , I've read that you can update this before 3 days of your appointment. But its better to take an extra steps and call them and be on safer side. 

 

I will be calling them regarding this.
