Your consulates wants you to submit DS-260 for electronic processing for the IV application

Where do I find the DS-260? I tried but I don't get it =/

I found the DS-260 ........is it like the IV application part I and 2 stuff? Just typed answers i guess? then it says mail in civil documents once completed.....we already sent in the IV stuff so we have to send them in all over again?

Canada has eletronic processing you might already know that I guess they want you to opt in for it I suppose, there's a guide on it through visa journey wiki, here's the link if you need it.

Have you seen this thread? DS-260

It's a bit of a read but it might help. Good luck.

Thank you for the kind reply,

It has been a long journey for us even before we sent out the I-130 we were figuring everything out being total newbies and what to do to tackle this process. We hit a few snags along the way, but I'm happy we are nearing the last step and I pray that it won't be as hard as some people have it, we prepared all the paperwork for the interview so I feel pretty confident that me and hubby will be okay.

We are planning to go to a greek restaraunt in the evening following the interview since it'll be valentines day, but hopefully it will be to also celebrate a successful interview =)

Have a safe trip Jen and good luck with the interview

Thank you I am hoping for good flying weather next week with all this crazy ice and snow both here in the USA and the Netherlands.
