OyoTunjiUSA: Pls have been unable to update my new ds160 on the new website, I donโt seem find the tab for my profile on the website |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by djbaju(m): 5:00am On Sep 05 |
Good morning, bro, I didn't update that cos I don't need to, I don't have a new DS160, immediately I knew the previous portal was going down, I updated the application number then, what I meant by update now is just that I edited some information on my ds160, and I am hoping the new information added will get to them when I submit my DS160 form today.

Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by djbaju(m): 5:11am On Sep 05 |
Good morning boss, sorry for getting you confused, and thanks for the input, Regarding the refusal, from my experience with UK visas, I will quote the application number in the box, in case I misplace my refusal letter, I will just write in text that I was refused in this (year) but I misplaced my refusal letter. Also, I only made an edit on my DS160 form and I had the application number updated in the old portal before it was closed, my fear is just that the new information added will be available to them, I don't think I can create an account on the new portal if an email is not sent to me on the registration process if I need to create a new DS160 and update on the new site since I had a future appointment scheduled before August 26. Thank you OyoTunjiUSA: |

I was trying to loginto my account on the new visa service portal, but the portal was not responding and my internet network is working fine. Who else encounters similar issue among us here. See the attached screenshot

djbaju: Hey ๐ค 1. I will just summarise that your DS-160 confirmation number must be the same that reflects on your VISA appointment letter (this is the major reason for need to update every new or updated DS-160 inside your given application portal). If, after submission your DS-160 aligns with your VISA interview appointment letter, then you do not need any update, otherwise, you have to. 2. You seems to have not received the introduction email for you to have a profile on the new website ? I believe you are still going to prior to your interview day. @Habibasunramu * If you did not fill another DS-160 or edited the previous one, then you do not need to update your DS-160 (except, if your DS-160 is more than 1-year). If you have done so, you will have to update your DS-160 to align with your visa appointment letter as explained in sense-1 above. * Navigate your new portal very well, there should be an option to update your profile , otherwise raise a ticket on the subject of profile updating. Best Wishes ๐ |

remguy: ๐ค 1. The" Applicant Visa Information Tracking System (AVITS Amentum) is still a newborn baby. Let's give it little time to grow with patience. 2. Clear your browser catche/history, change your browser or use another gadget to browse (IP issue) or restart your browsing gadget ie laptop, pad or android phones. 3. Aside of the fact that AVITS Amentum is new, all USA embassy websites for VISA application are security/privacy orientated, and they reacts with constant visits. ๐ |

Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by Mjolnir: 7:50am On Sep 05 |
so, someone knowledagble should pls correct me. i qualified and applied for dropbox in july and got a sept 2024 date. with the website change, the us visa peeps said they will mail a link for us to register on the new site by 31st august. today is 5th sept, and nothing yet on that. my dropbox date is 20th sept, and I want to ensure, I am not missing out on anything I should have done, or supposed to do. so am still waiting for the follow up mail from the us embassy --kindly confirm if this is correct |

Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by naivasha: 8:56am On Sep 05 |
Perhaps a silly quesion, but are available dates for Interview Waiver the same as for other categories? I was of the opinion that IW applications have earlier dates. I would appreciate it if anyone can clarify. Thank you. Shofat4real: |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by Eddykurrent(m): 9:14am On Sep 05 |
"I submitted my passport for an Interview Waiver at DHL Abuja on August 19th, and by August 29th, the visa was issued. However, I havenโt received any pickup notification from DHL yet. I visited the DHL office in Benin yesterday, but they informed me that they donโt have my passport. I'm feeling confused as the old tracking website no longer works, and thereโs no way for me to track the passport. What should I do at this point?" |

Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by Ikebabay: 9:59am On Sep 05 |
I am in your shoes- i.e visa issued but no pickup mail. I have been waiting for the pickup mail. The good thing is that the CEAC tracker mentions that passports are expected to be returned in 10 working days so that gives some level of indication of how long we need to wait. Message quoted below is part of the pop up window on the CEAC tracker "The consular section has completed processing your application and your visa has been issued. If you do not receive your passport and visa within 10 working days, please contact the embassy or consulate where you submitted your application" Eddykurrent: 1 Like |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by Ikebabay: 10:01am On Sep 05 |
Hi, Does the newly printed appointment mention your drop off location? If it does, then there shouldn't be any issues. All the best! Aramide2041: |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by Ikebabay: 10:06am On Sep 05 |
Hi, Someone mentioned they got their mail yesterday so it could be that they are rolling it out in batches. I would suggest you keep an eye on your mail and contact them about 1 week to your interview if you still haven't received the login details. All the best! Mjolnir: 1 Like |

Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by OyoTunjiUSA(m): 10:23am On Sep 05 |
Aramide2041: ๐ค 1. Based on the new directive, you are supposed to answer few questionnaire in order for the embassy to determine if you are still qualify for the IW, and having qualified, they will send the Interview Waiver Confirmation Letter to you, with detailed information on how to submit the application documents. 2. The embassy also stipulates that " Consular officers retain the authority to request a visa interview with any VISA applicant, even if they initially qualified and submitted their application through interview waiver procedures. 3. In view of the above reasoning, if your present VISA interview appointment letter is exactly same with those of none IW applicants, then i think the embassy want to see you physically. PS: You may also reach out to the embassy helpline. ๐ |

Hello everyone For those who paid the MRV prior and also those who already scheduled appointments, the info below may apply to you. I was using the chat button on the new site and it asked me a question about whether I had paid the MRV fee, when I clicked yes, the information below came up. You may need to exercise some patience while waiting for the activation link All the best! "If you already paid the MRV fee with the previous service provider, your fee is still within the validity period, and you have received a notification coming from noreply@usvisaappt.com , you need to sign up on: https://usvisaappt.com/ and review your new scheduling profile. Please be advised that the data migration for appointments scheduled in the previous system for November 2024 and beyond is still in progress and may take at least another week to complete. We kindly request that you refrain from creating new profiles and instead wait for the activation link, as creating a new profile will not facilitate the transfer of your data from the previous system. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time." |

Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by Ikebabay: 10:53am On Sep 05 |
Hi, I am sharing an update on this. I just contacted them using the chat feature on the new site. I was asked if I had created a profile on the new platform, I said no and I was told to wait for their email. So, I will wait. All the best! Eddykurrent: |

Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by dexydidi(f): 11:42am On Sep 05 |
Thank you for your reply. She never got me an appointment date that is what I am trying to say. Will I still receive the email from the US embassy? Also I created a new file on Avis , but I stopped because it was requesting some personal details and I did not bother proceeding because I felt I havent done enough research, some days later she then sent me a message asking me to watch out for an email. I am now confused on what to do because I have been waiting since March. What will now happen? Since I have created another profile on the new site although didnt complete it ? OyoTunjiUSA: |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by Mongodbjs: 3:15pm On Sep 05 |
Did your status change on the CEAC website to issued before you went to check ? Is there any possibility that the CEAC website shows application received but your visa has been processed? Just asking randomly if thatโs remotely possible thediva: |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by OyoTunjiUSA(m): 3:48pm On Sep 05 |
dexydidi: Hey ๐ค 1. Yes , you will still receive the introduction email but do not expect it very soon, because, the priority right now is for those who have secured an appointment before , and those who are ready to make new MRV payment on the new website right away. 2. Call or chat up the AVITS help-line for accurate information, but you do not need to create a new profile because your last payment is still valid. PS: She probably has contacted AVITS on your behalf , so wait for the email. She is working for you. Best Wishes ๐ |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by OyoTunjiUSA(m): 4:00pm On Sep 05 |
remguy: ๐ค 1. If your appointment is normal appointment you only need the first page ( you may print 2 copies). If it's IW (which usually has lengthy explanation), you have to read the instructions very well and print the important pages according to the instructions therein. ๐ |

Hello everyone .. my parents will be having their interview next week. I have made their appointment since year 2022. I just updated their DS160 but I am having issues logging into https://portal.ustraveldocs.com/ to update the DS160 profile number on their schedule. Is anyone also having issues with the date scheduling website ? I would appreciate any assistance i can get on this. I have also emailed the embassy but no response. Thank you. |
