Do not worry. The DS-160 is for Non-immigrant visas that are NOT K class visas. You can find this information on the Department of State web site under the DS-160 forms for visas. Continue to use the DS-156.

Good luck.

13. When I apply for a nonimmigrant visa using the online DS-160, are additional forms required?

No, with two exceptions. When applying at a U.S. Embassy or Consulate that is using the new DS-160, Online Nonimmigrant Visa Application, you will use only one (1) form. For Embassies and Consulates that have converted to this new process, the DS-160 has replaced all of the following forms: DS-156, DS-157, DS-158, and DS-3032, which are no longer necessary.

NOTE: The exceptions are Fiancé(e) Visas (K-1/2) which still require use of the forms DS-156 and DS-156K, and the Treaty Trader/Treaty Investor visa application, which is explained in #14 below.

When I got my K-1 through Vancouver a year ago I actually emailed them about this. They said that the DS-160 wasn't being used for K-1 visas. Good to know this is still the case.

In any event, once you get a Packet 3, it's instructions, plus emails from the actual consulate, override anything else you may hear anywhere else. If you follow the letter of the instructions for the Packet 3, and email the consulate to get an authoritative word on anything that seems unclear (VancouverK@state.gov) you should have no problems.
