You need to go with both passports. i.e the expired one and the new one. You don't need to make any changes .

HRprof:

I was supposed to attend a conference this year in US and I field my DS160 visa application based on that, but unfortunately I couldn't get appointment date this year but next year January. Since the conference is annual I decide to use the date for next year conference.
Now my question is , even if I should go with both passport, is it necessary I update ds160 detail for the purpose of next year travel and my renewed passport ?

mrprolifik:


Once you have submitted the Ds160 form . You can't make any amendment to the form. You can send an email to the embassy or consulate to update them on your new passport. But on the day of the appointment you will need to go with the old passport you used when submitting your Ds160 together with the new passport. If the visa is approved the embassy will attach it to the new passport. Your other option is to fill a new Ds160, which means paying for a new application .
Similar case happened to my colleague he applied for a new b1/b2 visa via interview waiver with a Nigerian passport that had 4months to expire . 2 weeks after submitting the Ds160 he applied for a new passport. While submitting his documents via DHL as required by the consulate, he submitted both passports since the old passport contained his expired b1/b2 visa and other valid Visas and stamps showing travelling history. His visa was approved but the new Visa was attached to the new passport.
So the bottom line is if you included any information regarding the old passport you will need to bring it along with you and even if you misplaced it you will need to get a police report that you misplaced the passport .

HRprof:


I don't think the bolded is not true, we don't pay to fill application form but appointment booking requires your MVR fee payment receipt to gain access as your visa fee since I don't need to book another appointment it will not require another visa fee. Someone suggested here I should fill a new application and update my appointment site with new ds160 and my new passport. which I think is a way forward.
I will still go with my expired passport because I have visas on it to show travel history. I might not need to change the expired passport details but my ds160 should reflect my current travel plan which I do not need to pay to fill a new one. Hope I'm in order,

Good day everyone,

Please can anyone give out advice on using emergency appointment for a conference ? A friend of mine paid 600 dollars for a conference in the US and it’s in mid October. He’s been looking for an appointment for months now but didn’t find…..
Also I think his place of work (state government) may be sponsoring him. Is it wise to use an emergency appointment… does he fall under emergency appointment category and do you think it may affect his chances of getting the visa ?
Any advice please.

I have a question. If husband qualifies for interview waiver(last visa expired less than 2years ago) but wife’s own is more than 2 years, can husband still apply for interview waiver with wife in the application? Thanks in advance

Why are you using an agent?
Everything you need to know is on this thread and there r people who will answer you. And yes you need to pay for a Visa fee

You don't need an agent to process your application. Meanwhile how much is he asking you to pay? I'm sure if you read posts on this page, you will see how an agent messed up someone's application. Do it yourself. Come here and ask questions if you are not sure of steps to take.

Hi. We have even cleared that issue and I didn't pay him.
Using the agent wasn't my call as we're a group going for the conference.
The agent is now stuck at getting appointments for individuals in the group. Is it usually this hard and unpredictable?
Thought it would be faster than this.
