ds 157

hi! i'm just wondering.. I payed Banco de Oro the amount needed for the interview which is $131.. they gave me a validated DS 137 form.. however, it was just now that i realized that they gave an expired form ( expiry was 09/30/2008). I went back to the bank but they said that they didn't receive any memo yet of the new form so that's what they're still giving out.. i tried printin the new form however, the bank wouldn't validate it because they claimed its a different date already.. they could only validate again if it was on the same date that i paid for it. will my expired form be a problem? help pls.. thanks..

I would suggest filling out two of the updated DS-137s and attached the payment copy to one. Be sure to make a xerox of the copies.

thats perfectly fine...

i just had my interview and my ds157 that the BDO validated was also expired.

i have 2 copies for DS 157, one was the validated form (expired) and the other one was the new form..

so you are still good to go

what is ds-137 and i i think all you have to bring to the banco de oro is the form ds-156 to validate the payment of the visa thanks

Expired form is fine. Embassy would only verify if it is machine validated. The one i got from BDO was also expired.

That should be okay. Use that one since that is the one that was validated by BDO. If you will be asked about the expiration date, tell them you already went back to them about it and tell them what they said. Just make sure you have receipt. You should be fine.

The machine validated form from BDO is DS-157.
