Unable To Update DS-260 (My wife's parents passed away since we initially filled the form).

[TerrySF 7]

Hello, 

 

I have another quick questions regarding our pre-interview checklist. We are reviewing her DS-260 and noticed her parent's details should be updated but we're unable to do so. There's no edit option for any of the sections. Does anyone know what we should do. Her parents are no longer alive but they were at the time of filing the form a few years ago. 

 

Thanks!

You can ask the embassy to reopen your DS-260

 

Go to https://ph.usembassy.gov/visas/immigrant-visa-inquiry-form/

 

Choose from "Topic of Inquiry (Dropdown):" select "Form DS-260 (Application for Immigrant Visa and Alien Registration) Access" .  Fill out the rest of the information and just put a note like "Can you please reopen my DS-260 so I can update it before my scheduled interview.”  They would typically reopen your DS-260 and reply in 2 or 3 work days.

 

Or, you also have a chance to ask them to update the DS-260 at the pre-interview document check the day of the interview.
