Hi all,

Is correction tape allowed if I made an error on the forms? Or it MUST be error free?

Has anyone used correction tape on their forms and got away with it?

Pls tell me I don't need to fill up a new form.....

We entered all of the information on our forms by typing it on a computer and then printing the completed version. When we were reviewing the information just prior to the interview and found several small errors, though, I just crossed out the incorrect information with a single horizontal line, wrote in the correct information neatly, and wrote my initials. The embassy accepted the forms without a problem. I wouldn't think that for an official form, the embassy would be happy about a correction method that obscures what was written there originally, so the above method seems as though it would be preferable to correction tape.
