Go to your DS 160 website input details like you want to retrieve your form, it will two options; view your confirmation page or create new application. Click on new application and continue with the whole process as displayed.

This will generate a new DS 160 confirmation number and also show you all your previous information filled , go through, fill and edit, upload pic, Sign and submit.

Then go to the appointment website, click on update profile, change the DS 160 confirmation number to the new one and click save.

That should take you back to the homepage, click on appointment confirmation, it will generate your new appointment confirmation having your new DS 160 number without changing your appointment date. you can then email or print it.
Hi! I've followed all instructions but I couldn't get a new appointment confirmation email with the new DS 160 no. I've been able to edit it on the appointment website but I need a confirmation email with the updated DS 160. Thanks alot. The information was very helpful.
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 4 by simonydurny(m): 2:06pm On Sep 28, 2023
Please I have filled another DS-160 and updated the number on the appointment page on ustravel docs. But the name and surname is not editable. Other information can be edited. Should I use another email address to create a new profile? Or since the middle name is in the DS 160 it doesn't matter if it is not on the appointment? Please I need help. Please!!

If you help someone fill any application, always have then review what you did before submitting.
You can fill another DS160 and include the middle name. Then update the new number in ustraveldocs
You can update ustraveldoc profile info. Not sure you'd still have same date, but the possibility of getting other dates before 06/24 is high.
Have him/her review before you submit again.

Guys i have questions. 1, if someone sends an invitation to you for b1/b2 visa, does the embassy call the person to verify the invitation?

Good morning guys
I need help
So I’m still in school, I’m doing my bachelor’s degree but I’m in final year already. I plan on going to the US after my final exams for holiday. The trip will be sponsored by my mom and also I have few friends there that wants me to stay with them when I come so accommodation won’t be an issue.
My question here is how do I go about it?
What do I need to apply? Why medical exams do I need to undergo? What are the fees? What are my chances of visa approval? Do I need to apply with my mom as she is of a high position in her company to increase my chances? I mean I’ll apply under her as her dependant I’m 20 years old.. will that work?? And also I was rejected twice by the Canadian embassy when I applied for my student visa for my bachelor’s degree. Reason for the first was ‘I am not satisfied you will leave Canada at the end of your stay based on your personal assets and financial status when I first applied I was just 18 and my mom had about 140k cad when converted in her account. So I tried applying again boosted my pof and had about 240k cad . She included sponsorship letter, cac, previous visas and passport and any other thing you can think of but I was still denied. Reason same as the first

Do you think this will affect my chances of a visa approval?


Do I need to get an invitation letter from my friends there?

I have read through the thread but the more I read the more confusing it is for me
Please help a sister

No they don't call.
They also wont take it from you at your interview.
You cant scan and upload it, so it is useless to a large extent
Invitation Letter helps your application to the rate or about 2.5%. It's almost irrelevant.

Good morning guys

To go to the US on holiday, you need a B1/B2 Visa.
To get a B1/B2 Visa, you need to follow the steps below

Step 1
Fill DS-160 form
https://ceac.state.gov/GenNIV/Default.aspx
Step 2
Pay visa fees (GTB online or walk into branch or other banks***)
Step 3
Create an account here, www.ustraveldocs.com and use DS160 Confirmation Number and Visa Fees number to fill out profile. Then also book appointment here.

You will only see option of checking dates after Step 1 and 2 are completed.

Please take your time to fill the DS160. Don’t rush. Use 3 days or more.

To increase your chances of approval, be thorough in your DS160 info. Demonstrate that you have compelling reasons to leave the US after your vacation. Your mom sponsoring you 100% is good, but creates a room for doubt because she wont give you her life savings if you decide to elope, but you will become a charge on tax payers - benefits, working under the radar etc etc while trying to adjust status and get papers etc etc.

You might be lucky that u know the procedure about travels but i doubt at 20yrs years old that u hv any knowledge then rather the information u gathered from people and experience hv shaped u over time . He is a young chap already thinking of how to hv a good future which is commendable as many kids at that age is bothered with inconsequential things . Yes he is educated and schooling but does it now mean he should be knowledgeable about travels given his age ? Help where u can as we all started somewhere, going ahead to type in spanish to discourage someone else from helping the young chap is irrelevant. In as much as i hv repeatedly applied to Usa and renewed 3times , i still hv some issues i need others who hv experienced it to assist me . It doesn't mean am not educated or schooled but am counting on real life experience of others to navigate through the issue. Be your brothers keep so the world will be better place .Peace smiley

Take it as you will..cos I didn't see you jump to share knowledge you know to help him since you somehow know his age
I'm being my brother's keeper

I'm advising him exactly how to learn from experience...by reading . This thread and many others are books of knowledge. Schooling and reading are second nature ..then put it to use

As you can see the someone who helped by repeating the same thing in this thread written many times before still got a 'let me contact you'

At first I didn’t want to reply to your initial comment cause it was of no use
If I chose to contact him is there a problem with that?
Do you have a problem with that?
Yes I go to school
I read and study I understand but every one needs help at some point. I can bet that even you would need help not necessarily in affairs like this but you would ask for help at some point even after reading through and going through and yet you’d still not understand and you’d need proper guidance.
Even if I contacted him/her and still got no response theres nothing there or wrong with that.you weren’t the one I contacted.And also you want to tell me you haven’t asked any on this platform Not everyone learns by reading some needs to be explained to

Good day all. I want to book joint appointment for my self and my wife, but I'm unable to add my wife to mine profile. The error message is that my wife details I imputed when adding her is almost the same with an existing profile.
We used to have separate profiles but now want to attend interview as couple.
Please help me out in resolving this issue.
Thanks.
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 4 by Gbanis: 2:16am On Oct 02, 2023
Hello fam, I'm back with another question.
Ok so I already stated here that ex husband and I got our visas together 7 years ago, while we were going to birth our child. We travelled but he didn't return against our initial plans and agreement as a couple. I had a new carrier to build so I refused to stay and returned with our baby, then went back to work. I traveled twice after then and also came back while my visa expired. Saw him on the first trip but didn't on the second trip because he didn't want me to. Things went really sour between us when I found out he was living with another woman and had moved on. It's been about 6 years since then. Our divorce has been legally finalized and i do not have a cordial relationship with him. (A lot of things happened so I just knew I couldn't continue with the marriage) We do not talk, so I can not tell his exact whereabouts.
I'm filling out my DS160 and under the divorce section, there's a column where they asked "what happened" My question is, Would the visa officer know that he stayed back in the US? Secondly, How do I summarize the reasons for the divorce in a precise and straight to the point way? But still explanatory? (A lot happened oh). Is there something like the right key words to use?
What is on our decree nisi is dessertion of matrimonial home and the marriage has broken down irritrivalbly. Do I stick to that? Is it explanatory enough? I just don't want to have issues with my renewal because of his stay there. Has anyone faced same situation? Your input will be appreciated.
Someone adviced I do a newspaper publication and go with it. Is it necessary?
I'm open to that too.

There seems to be restriction on adding dependent or group booking lately.
You both have to find seperate dates.
Might then get a mail a week or 2 before the date to join the other for the interview.

You have answered the question yourself.
Just say it as is in the DS160. The 2nd bold is all you need to fill in the form. Add the number of years for emphasis. If there is any need for further clarification, let it be asked by the VO at the interview and you respond verbally.
Have your Divorce Decree on hand. Newspaper publication not needed. The only legal (and consular) reason for a newspaper publication after a divorce is change of your last name (as is for a marriage)

You can do it yourself free of charge.
You don’t need anyone to help you.
The only money you should pay is your visa fees.

Read the last 5 pages on this thread and all the information you need is already public information.
Even getting appointment date as early as Jan / Feb 2024 were all shared freely this week.
