Online DS-156 Form Will Not Print Correctly

[Young Turp 0]

if its not working you may need to use a different computer - go to an internet cafe or use a friends computer

We'll keep trying different computers, but we've tried 3 now, and no luck.

I'm not sure I follow how exactly this will help. It won't have the barcode, and the form itself says it's ok to print in the text boxes.

I have Adobe, and I installed Foxit, but I'm not sure it's doing anything for me.

Have you cleared your internet browser history? Anyways, heres the state.gov pdf version of ds-156: http://www.state.gov/documents/organization/108128.pdf - just type in the data exactly like the one you printed. If this one won't spit out/generate a barcode you bring both forms - the one with the barcode and the one with your info.

(all the forms can be found at http://www.state.gov/m/a/dir/forms/visa/index.htm )

Thanks, that's what I was planning to do.

It's possible they are switching the forms. This one is suppose to expire 5/31/11... but who knows. Also, getting this error now:

Couldn't open image file 'E:\CA_WebSites\EVAF\Forms_appt\UserFiles\linS2DB4ICVPR.jpg'!I looked at the JavaScript/HTML of the website, and I can't see anything wrong. I even saw the text field validation logic to check for characters, spaces, etc. and tested it and it worked as expected. The JavaScript function for the "continue" button is not in the HTML (must keep it hidden in a file somewhere) so I cannot see what exactly is going on. I'm thinking there is a file missing or corrupted on their server that they use to generate the form. Or the server might just be down.

It worked for fiancée finally this morning. She was able to print out the DS-156 form with the barcode and everything =)

I'm not sure what happened, whether they fixed the site or what, but I'm so glad it works now!

Thanks everyone for your concern and advice! God Bless!

Her interview is in < 24 hours. Around 6 AM Thursday, June 2 (Philippine's time). =)
