Yes, you're technically allowed to fill out the DS-160 on behalf of the applicant. Many people do that and it's acceptable.

However, as per the DOS rules, the applicant must click the "submit" button on their own... after being explained by the one filling out the paperwork what they inputted in the form and if the applicant agrees with it. Good luck.

I learned the hard way, I hope YOU don't have to. Advice: learn, learn, learn.

Hello. 

 

Does anyone know if I can fill out the K1 visa DS-160 app for my fiance in Vietnam.

I'm in the US her English is not as good as mine.

Yes you can.      

 

Do take note, U.S. law states:

 

" Other people can assist you with your visa application. Note that under U.S. law (22 C.F.R. 41.103) you must electronically sign and submit your own application unless you qualify for an exemption. Even if someone else helped you complete the application, you (the applicant) must click the “Sign Application” button, or your application may not be accepted. "

An added note, CEAC does offer a Vietnamese translation.
