Then stop trying to submit a ds 160 for the child.  You do that when the child is ready to travel

people saying K1 and K2  must fill out  ds  160,  pay mrv fee, and so on.

also people  saying K1 must bring k2 ds 160 confirmation to the interview. 

 

you are  saying ds 160 for  k2 it not required at the moment until he is ready to go which is within a year?  

 

Im struggle here for nothing....

Nothing to struggle about.   You do not do any of the consular visa steps until the child is ready to be interviewed and be issued the visa.  Period.

  • Completed Form DS-160, Online Nonimmigrant Visa Application. You (and any eligible children applying for K-2 visas) must: (1) complete Form DS-160 and (2) print the DS-160 confirmation page to bring to your interview. 

 

So how do we interpret this instruction from the state.gov web? I read it like the way it is. There is no exemptions. It does not  say  ¨at a later time when the K2 is ready to follow¨.

 

This is why I got confused...
