[Zharren Young 32]

hello VJer's.

so we finally got our much grieved NOA2 after a long painful 6months of waiting-thank goodness!

to everyone who got approved in january congrats to us and for those still waiting i really hope you get yours soon.

im posting this to seek help from my fellow pinays who just went thru recently on preparing if not still on the process of preparing for interview and ofcourse to those who can contribute helpful tips for this matter.

so i read on that DS 156/157 etc has been replaced with DS 160 form?

can you please share your experience with me step by step?

will surely appreciate it much and thank you all in advance

and to the mods incase i posted in the wrong forum again which i hope not, please feel free to move it thank you

the DS 160 is not used for the k-1 but they 156,156k 2 copies each 157 are needed

DS-156, not DS-160.

DS-160: Online Nonimmigrant Visa Application (for all nonimmigrant categories except K, N, S, T, U applications)

DS-156: Nonimmigrant Visa Application (K, N, S, T, U category applications only)

well it confuse me coz i just read this on USEM manila

Effective May 24, 2010, all nonimmigrant visa applicants will be REQUIRED to complete and submit an online visa application form known as the DS-160 Nonimmigrant Visa Electronic Application. The DS-160 Nonimmigrant Visa Electronic Application will replace the current nonimmigrant visa paper application, Forms DS-156/157/158, and other related paper forms.

Applicants can access the DS-160 from the Consular Electronic Application Center website or from the link on the U.S. Embassy website in Manila.

They are talking about Visitor/Tourist/Business/Student visas That link goes to the Nonimigrant visa unit of the embassy.

K-Visas are handled by the IMMIGRANT visa unit. That part of the site has form link directly to the page I referenced in my prior post.

I filled out DS-160 too because I also got the same dilemma but when I got into the USembassy they never asked for it my interview was last January 6 so don't bother to get the DS-160 just the DS-157, 156K, 156 good luck girlie.

yep thank you i did. i think will start filling out the forms once we know where our case is now. so far di pa kami tawag at wala pa yung hard copy of NOA2 eh. but thanks to all who are very nice & kind enough to share their knowledge

[krissyjoe 3]

I suggest that you start filling out those forms when your fiancee receive a letter from the USCIS with your MNL or should they call it case number on it there's no rush in completing those forms cause there just so easy to complete good luck girlie and I hope you'll get your NOA2 pretty soon. wish you all the luck in your journey
