HOW TO UPDATE SUBMITTED DS160

[Jen27062019 22]

@Greenbaum Hello! question, if I have already submitted the DS-160 and there are new information that I need to update such as address and employment details, should I send a new DS-160?

MRV paid in March and case status has been READY since March as well.

 

I just wanted to know if I need to prepare a new DS-160 for the interview as well as update the details in the I-134.

 

Thank you! 😀

The "old" DS-160, Online Nonimmigrant Visa Application unfortunately cannot be reopened if older then 30 days or you have already hit the "submit" button. You can create a new DS-160, Online Nonimmigrant Visa Application but I would wait closer to the interview date so that there are not any additional changes that come after submitting the new DS-160, Online Nonimmigrant Visa Application. The new form that you create will also have a confirmation page with the bar code and that is the one you bring to the interview. It's the only one the CO can view unless of course you give the "old" one by mistake to them. So, destroy the old one so that you don't get it mixed up with the new one.

 

If it were just a simple address change then you could update at the interview but you have other items and I doubt the CO would like to spend 10 minutes updating your DS-160, Online Nonimmigrant Visa Application. So do a new one.

Hello, I tried to retrieve a DS-160 application before when I applied for a Tourist Visa and I just edited it and I was provided a new code. Can I do that again and retrieve an application so I can just edit the address and my employment details? Thank you! @Greenbaum

I'm not sure but go ahead and try it. Be sure to have the barcode page printed for the interview.
