Happens if I delay in filling DS-260

[Thowa 0]

Asuming my cn AF12xx that means i might go for interview in october. what happens if I don't fill the DS-260 until october. the problem is I am currently in India and will be coming back to Ghana on 20th September, do I have to wait till I come to Ghana to fill the form? If so will my cn be preserved and still be granted access to interview?

If you fillup your ds230 in the 2 following months you will be definitly be scheduled for october but if you do it in september they will reschedule you asap, so you will be interviewed probably december or january! If you wanna delay your interview you can just fill your ds260 app later like i said....

Remember to take a police clearance from india ...

Good luck

Yes like Vladek said, you can delay submitting it, and then because you will already be current when you send the form in they will schedule you in the next available interview round. Just be aware that might not happen immediately as (from what I can figure out) they schedule the interviews around 8 weeks in advance. Interview notifications are sent out usually 6-7 weeks before the interview.

But if you are back 20 September, why do you want to delay? Are you concerned you will not have time to collect all your civil documents between when you get back to Ghana and the interview date?

I have no idea what the Ghanaian situation re medicals is. It also depends on when in October his interview is. I can't see why he couldn't book a medicals appointment for, say, 21 or 22 September and then all should be fine even with an early October appointment. However I know some countries have somewhat more complicated procedures about medicals, not sure if Ghana has them.

only two accredited hospitals can produce accepted medical reports for the us embassy in ghana. i have contacted them and both claim the results will be ready by a week. but what am still not sure is when the police report will be ready

YOu must be careful about the Police clearance... Because some countries only 3 or 6 months validity ...so you should check it out !
