When booking your visa appointment, you must ensure that you, or your representative, submit a properly completed DS-160 form (online visa application). If you book an appointment on or after November 15, 2023, with an improperly filled DS-160, you will not be allowed to attend the Visa Application Center (VAC) appointment or submit your application documents and will need to reschedule your appointment.
If you booked your appointment before November 15, 2023, with an improperly filled DS-160 OR you have made minor corrections to your DS-160, you must bring the confirmation page from the original DS-160 AND the corrected DS-160 to your VAC or document drop-off appointment. If you do not appear with both confirmation pages, you will be required to reschedule your appointment.
Please note that a properly completed DS-160 form contains the complete and correct information (including name, gender, visa class, date of birth, passport number, etc.) for the applicant who will appear for the interview. Minor corrections and changes such as a renewed passport, new phone number, change of address, job change, minor change of travel plans, change of marital status, et cetera are allowed. In the event of a minor change, please bring both your original DS-160 confirmation page and the confirmation page for the corrected DS-160 to the appointment.
