You can redo the DS-160 and save and submit but print off the receipt with that bar code and bring to the interview and forget all about the other one with the mistake. At the interview the CO will ask for your DS-160 receipt and you will give them the updated receipt. Many have made a mistake and were able to pass with using my example of what to do. 

We read that this was a possible solution, we just wanna be sure so we don't screw this up. Thanks!!

Haha no, I do not have this question, that's very odd. I was asked primary occupation, present employer or school name, address, city, state/province, postal zone/zip code, country/region, work phone number, monthly salary in local currency, briefly describe your duties, all of which I filled out and then it immediately went on to "Do you belong to a clan or tribe?". And I would never had answered "No" to the secondary level education question, as I have attended university. I'm not sure what would've sparked the form to not ask me this question.

Well, I'm currently unemployed, so maybe that's the difference, but I have no idea...

Hm, that probably explains it, because it is an interactive form after all and I remember where it asks for your "primary occupation", there was a drop-down menu and I guess whatever you fill in there will decide the next things asked for  That's a bit of a relief haha, I triple checked this form and I was just confused for a while just now how I could've missed this part. But evidently I'm not going insane 

 

Hope you're able to solve the school thing, I'm surprised that they ask for such a long education history, I never would've guessed.

Yes it is because of the unemployment.

We are all going a lil bit crazy  but if you put high school and college why it would matter until before that... But whatever, right? And it looks like it could be a brazilian thing too, since Is in the instructions in the embassy website.

We had this talk with some june filers.

it was about chosing “unemployed” (there was a panic mode enabled by this heheh)

 

in my case, when I did this unemployed before for b2 (it is the exact form for tourist visas) it asked me anything. Now for employed they don’t. I also tried with unemployed because I’m not sure if I’ll be employed at that moment it asks for univ. high school etc.

Everyone is one step to panic, but I know that this forms are slightly different from case to case. I was helping my parents for b1/b2 and we got some different things even tho they had very similar history. But I'm just worried about going back to the 11 years old thing. From what you have seen the right thing to do is to fill again and take the new confirmation number/bar code to the interview?

Btw, how is your process @Naes ? Things went smooth after noa2?

Yes as far as I’ve seen. 

 

You can always send the embassy an inquiry about it.

Nice to know, we did. I'm waiting what they will say. But it's always nice to share here and hear from real experiences
