March 1st requirement for new alectronic application form

[timberzyx 0]

Hello all,

I was all set to follow the VJ K-1 guide and now apparently out-dated yesterday Bogota embassy instructions regarding the steps to take after BOG receives approved I-129F from NVA (I am US petitioner. Spoke to NVA who told me they sent approved I-129F petition to embassy in BOG on 6/21/10.), HOWEVER, I see a change is process now posted on BOG embassy website: "Effective March 1st, 2010, individuals applying for a non-immigrant visa at the US Embassy in Bogota will be required to submit a new electronic application form, know as DS-160 Non-Immigrant Visa Electronic Application."

Has anyone else applied using this new electronic form? How did the procedure(s) change from what is in the VJ K-1 Guide?

I am concerned that my fiancee in Baranquilla will have difficulty doing this herself online (difficult for her to access good computer and ability to scan and upload photo). Could I help her by completing all but "signing" myself, then save onto the embassy site (they seem to say this is possible on site), then tell fiancee (with password) to access nearly completed form at site and complete and transmit to embassy?

Your experiences and or suggestions/thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks

Stick with the old forms that are listed under #13 & #16 for fiancee visas:
