Generally, there are two situations when modifying a form: 1. You have not paid for the reservation yet, but just filled out the form. 2. After the payment is made and the reservation is made, the information on the application form needs to be changed. The processes and methods for modifying table information are different in the two situations.
The first situation: You haven’t paid for the reservation yet, you just filled out the form. This situation can be modified directly. Log in to the US DS-160 form filling system. After selecting the location to apply for a visa, directly select the third "Retrieve an application" to call up the visa form. The specific operations are as follows:
After clicking to enter, you need to enter the application number "Application ID" of your last application form, and then click the "Retrieve Application" button to proceed to the next step.
After clicking "Retrieve Application", fill in the information as required.
After filling in the information completely, click the "Retrieve Application" button again to proceed to the next step. At this time, a light blue box will pop up, showing two options: 1. Check the confirmation page "View Confirmation Page", 2. .Create a new application form "Create a new Application". We need to click to select the latter and then "Continue".
After continuing with "Continue", you need to set new security questions. You can reset them or just keep them the same as before. This will also generate a new application code "Application ID".
The second situation: After payment has been made and the reservation has been made, the information on the application form needs to be changed.
If the applicant has paid to reserve a visa time, the applicant needs to modify the form according to the above method, then log in to the reservation system, cancel the reserved time, then modify the personal information, and then make a new appointment.
Consider the order of operations in the figure below: 1. Cancel the reservation; 2. Update personal information (enter the new US confirmation application code); 3. Make a new reservation.
