US Immigration from Philippines

Hi,

My fianc e is a K-1 applicant in Manila. She already finished her medical and VAC biometrics, but we just noticed her DS-160 has an error.

In the Passport Country/Authority Issued field, she put United Arab Emirates. Her passport is actually a Philippine passport issued at the Philippine Consulate in Dubai. All other details (number, name, dates, etc.) are correct.

Should we:

1. Leave it as is and explain at the interview, or
2. Submit a new DS-160 with the correct info and bring both confirmation pages?

Will the Embassy be able to use the new DS-160 at the interview even though VAC was already done with the old one?

Thanks for your help

Hello everyone

I was instructed by the NVC that the documents for Immigrant's Visa Application for my 2 sons need to be mailed to DOS Visa in VA. I sent the 2 separate packets to DOS VISA through USPS Registered Mail on Monday September 8. I checked on the USPS tracking that the packets have been delivered and are available at a PO Box on September 11, 2025 in STERLING, VA 20166. How would I know that the packets are already in the hands of the NVC staff?

Thank you VJ family.

Dina and I sent in a fat envelope on 9/2/2025 for AOS and EA. Checks cashed two days ago. We're in the game.

Good luck to us all...

This was covered in a post long ago. I wanted to see if there were any updated opinions. The checks were cashed two days ago for Dina's AOS and EA. That's where we are now. We have a travel itch. Going to the continent holds little interest. We want something more exotic. Should CNMI be safe as it is a US territory?

I need help please. My fiance is in the Philippines and the Visa center in Manila has received our paper work and the next step is to get the interview and medical. My fiance filled out and sent the DS-160 in. What do we do next? when do we pay for the DS-160 and pay for the interview? we are so confused on what to do. we read the info and directions for the DS-160 but it does not say anything about when to pay this or that.
