if an applicant comes to the appointment with incorrect information, they will need to return for their interview after the information is corrected. I found that in the US embassy in Sto. Dgo.

That is when you go with the wrong papers, they give you another appoinment to submit the right papers, but when they oppen and read the 160 they arent going to ask you if all that you have answered is truth, they think that is truth but they are going to look if it is right, so if they read that you say that never she was denied before , they are going to think that she is lying because they have on their computer her record.

So my abvise fix it as soon as possible.

When you fix an application you print a new confirmation page, the day of the interview you present the new confirmation page.

There are a lots of informations on google about that.

the other question is: Has Anyone ever filed an immigrant petition on your behalf with USCIS ... we put no.. is that one correct??

The answer would be no, unless someone has previously petitioned for an immigrant visa on your behalf.

The K1 is a non-immigrant visa.

if my fiancee made a mistake doing the DS 160 and she submitted it, what will happen, can we re- do it again??

We are confused with this question:

Have you ever been refused a US visa, or been refused admission to the United States or withdrawn your application for admission at the Port of Entry??/

We answer NO, but in 2007 she was refuse a visa from college and 2010 they refuse a tourist visa because she hadnt strong tie in DR, now we are nervous and dont know what to do, because, that made us confused,

so Any advise would be good.

the other question is: Has Anyone ever filed an immigrant petition on your behalf with USCIS ... we put no.. is that one correct??

.Omg I need your help please...

Have you ever been refused a US visa, or been refused admission to the United States or withdrawn your application for admission at the Port of Entry -

I think you are okay in this one saying NO because the question is 'refused at the PORT OF ENTRY' which means here in the US and not in the US Embassy where the interview took place. Correct me if am wrong. Thanks.

Okay, this thread is very confusing lol. Yeah, in most instances you can't edit the DS-160 after it's been submitted. But, there's a loophole.

Do you have your application ID number? How long has it been since you submitted the DS-160?

If you have the number, and it has been less than 30 days since you submitted the form, go to the CEAC website, and click "retrieve application". The system will prompt you to "create new application", select this, and your previous application should come up. You can submit the form again and and print a new cover page and bar code. You should submit both the previous and the new cover pages to the embassy (or bring them to the interview, whichever your consulate requires).

If it's been more than 30 days, I don't know the fix, sorry. If you don't have your application ID number, I think you need to be able to recall your answers to the security questions that were set at the time you registered your account.

Have you ever been refused a US visa, or been refused admission to the United States or withdrawn your application for admission at the Port of Entry -

I think you are okay in this one saying NO because the question is 'refused at the PORT OF ENTRY' which means here in the US and not in the US Embassy where the interview took place. Correct me if am wrong. Thanks.

The wording is broken up like this:

Have you ever:

(a) been refused a US visa; or

(b) been refused admission to the United States; or

© withdrawn your application for admission at the Port of Entry

As long as either (a) or (b) or © holds true, the answer should be "yes" - so the OP should have selected "yes" for this question since his fiance was refused a US visa.

the sentence is like this

it is just one question... YES or NO...

So I submitted today and Yes i have the application ID, i f I do it like that i can see the previous application??? if I'll Try now can I still save it until I feel comfortable to send it before 30 days?

Have you ever been refused a US visa, or been refused admission to the United States or withdrawn your application for admission at the Port of Entry -

I think you are okay in this one saying NO because the question is 'refused at the PORT OF ENTRY' which means here in the US and not in the US Embassy where the interview took place. Correct me if am wrong. Thanks.

Those questions need to be elaborate more. There are 3 questions, (Have you ever been refused a US visa), or (been refused admission to the United States) or (withdrawn your application for admission at the Port of Entry - ) not only specific about POE.

To OP:

Please see your I-129F approval petition that US consulate sent to you attached to packet 3. There is column remarks there and one of Vjers here had an additional info on the column about her J-1 visa refusal. Check it and if it says the refusal so make sure your fiancee giving an explanation to CO about the error and she did not intend to lied on application.

I was refused for B-2 visa (or as I thought ) in 2010 and I filled out DS-160 form before got packet 3. Back then, CO gave me green slip 212 (g) and put "consider filing petition for K-1 visa" for refusal reason. When I filled out DS-160 form, I clicked yes, and the next column says,"explain". So had to explain that I've been refused for B-2 visa in 2010.

The funny part was, on the remarks of my I-129F approval, it did not mentioned about my B-2 visa refusal, only my I-129F expiration date written with a pen. One more thing, you can't re-do your DS-160 form after you submitted it. Only retrieved it.
