Why are you filling out a DS-260? That is an Immigrant Visa application, and the Fiance Visa is considered a Nonimmigrant Visa. That is why there is no option of "fiance" on that application.

[CESep 4]

Also, have you submitted the I-129F to USCIS yet? The DS visa app form is a later part of the process, not included in the original I-129F filing.

Here is the K-1 guide on this site:

Once she is ready for the interview, they will ask her to bring in a completed form DS-156 (or maybe DS-160, I don't know which one Mexico uses).

Because for some reason, Juarez is now making the K-1 applicants fill it out.

OP> Others put spouse because it was the closest thing. Read through this thread. It is long, but might help you out: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/298777-ds-260-form-as-of-march-1st-2011/

Yes there's a difference, it should have said on the packet they sent you.

The VJ info for your embassy says you need to fill DS-156 (Non immigrant Visa application) in duplicate and 1 DS-156K (Non Immigrant fiance Visa application.

MRV fee - Machine Readable Visa fee. I don't know how much it costs and could be embassy specific.

i have a question about the form ds-160

The DS-160, Online Nonimmigrant Visa Application, is a fully integrated online application form that is used to collect the necessary application information from a person seeking a nonimmigrant visa for temporary travel to the United States. Form DS-160 is submitted electronically to the Department of State website via the Internet. Consular Officers use the information entered on the DS-160 to process the visa application and, combined with a personal interview, determine an applicant’s eligibility for a nonimmigrant visa.

Visa applicants must submit a completed DS-160, Online Nonimmigrant Visa Application for all nonimmigrant visa categories (except for K, N, S, T, and U categories, which still use the Form DS-156, Nonimmigrant Visa Application).
