They primarily e-mail the information based on what you put on the petition.

FOR K1: DS-160 Application Form is available online at http://ceac.state.gov/genniv/. The system will automatically generate receipt after you submit the form.

Send a copy of the confirmation receipt and a photocopy of the biographic information page of the applicant�s passport to KingstonIV@state.gov with the following Subject line format, �CASE NUMBER-DS 160 CEAC# BARCODE�. E.g. �KNG 2013100000-DS-160 CEAC #AA003GUI60�

Here is some info to get started.

E-mail the embassy, have your received your NOA2, and confirmation that NVC sent your file to JA Embassy?

Yea I know it's in Ja by case status check and everything. Everything is good, received everything. Emailed them before too, no reply yet. But should I just let him start the DS-160?

Did you do this? Did you get a letter before doing the DS-160? Can u share ur experience?

[Pinkrlion 2,724]

As long as you have your KNG number you can do DS-160 and email it to embassy.
