I've been given this form DS-5535 at Islamabad consulate after interviewing on August 16,2017 I am very confused if it's mandatory for siblings information especially date of birth that's very personal information.

 

I know it's personal but you have to fill out every part of the form.

Try to give as much information you possibly can to avoid giving them a reason for unnecessary delay

I know dude ..... All they do is basically to copy the status message and send it back to you without any clue or anything helpful ...... Our CEAC status have changed 3 times, last one was on 16 August.

Yes i know. It looks like ppl on this thread received their visa within 60 days. Do you know if they will actually do anything after 60 days? I mean i spoke to someone at the embassy and they said the investigation ends then and they decide for a further investigation if theres another hit in your application. Does that mean i'll get my visa issued if it all goes well in 60 days..?
