![]() ![]() Just use the one you'd like the consular officer to see. Each time you submit, a new confirmation page is generated. You can refill and update the DS160 form as many times as you'd like. At the consular interview, the new DS160 was used and all issues were solved. No worries, at the next station, upon informing the officer there, a new barcode was generated for the updated DS160 form and stuck over the old one. ![]() At one point, the old barcode is first stuck to the passport. We mentioned to each and every one of them about this change. In the Chennai biometric center, we had our form checked by at least 5 separate officers. Just make sure that this is the new DS160 and not the old one. At the end of the biometric interview, you will have a DS160 barcode stuck to the back of the passport. They will use the forms the rest of the way. When you go to the biometric appointment, inform the officers that you would like to use the new DS160 forms and not the one you used to book the appointment. What finally ended up happening was pleasantly easy and hassle-free.Īs of mid-September, 2015, all I had to do was fill out new DS160 forms and generate the confirmation page with the barcode and number. The internet was filled with conflicting information (some saying you can go with a new DS160 to the current appointment and others saying you need to reschedule with the new DS160). USTravelDocs doesn't have any information in their FAQ regarding this. What could I do at this point?īased on the above information, at first glance, it would seem that the only way out of this quandary is to generate new DS160 forms, cancel the existing appointments, and book new ones. USTraveldocs doesn't allow you to change the appointment information once the appointment is booked. The DS160 website does not allow you to redo the form once submitted and confirmed without generating a new bar code and confirmation number. After doing so, I realized that I had several changes to make to our DS-160 forms. I had submitted a DS160 for myself and one for my spouse and used the respective confirmation numbers to book an appointment for the two of us at the Chennai, India consulate (biometric and consular). I couldn't find much information online when I needed it but now that I've experienced the process, I thought I would share what I went through if it helps others in the future. This is an informational post and not a question.
