DS156

[paradise.71 0]

I have a question for the list. If one has filled out the online application for the DS156, can one get another one? The reason I am asking, one day while I was getting all our paperwork ready for the I-129F application, I went ahead and filled out the DS156, but since that time, I have moved. and the 156 shows my old address. Should I be concerned about this, or is it not a problem? Can I fill out another one w/o causing a problem? I have notified the USCIS of the change of address. Thanks in advance, I don't know how anyone ever gets this done without this list.

Hi Bryan & Maria,

From looking at your timeline you have only submitted the I129F so far.

If that is the case, then just download a new DS-156, fill it out and shred to old one. It is not submitted by the beneficiary until the interview at the consulate.

Actually for a K1 visa, the beneficiary will complete a DS-156 (in duplicate - meaning print two copies) and a DS156K.

Its good to review and prepare but there is no need to complete some of these forms so far in advance.

You are right of course, and the I-129f is indeed all that we have done, but I just flat HATE surprises, especially unpleasant ones! Thanks for the reply. I have had a lot of trouble trying to print another one also, becuase the web site is hanging up. That may be my fault more than theirs, but at least now I know that I'm not gonna mess anything up by doing another. Thanks for the reply

Try going to the website during off peak hours and check your version of Adobe. These are a few things that can cause hang-ups.

Hate suprises!!! Oh my, better buckle up and get prepared, the visa journey can be full of them!

You'll be fine, just take the time to fully understand the process and be mentally prepared for anything. It puts us all to the test but true love will endure!!!
