DS-160 help

The DS-160 is the online application used for temporary U.S. visas, including B1/B2 visitor visas. It is more than just a form.

What it asks for

It asks detailed questions about you, and may cover:

  • Personal information
  • Passport details
  • Your U.S. travel plans
  • Previous U.S. travel
  • International travel history
  • Employment
  • Education
  • Family information
  • Security and background questions

You certify that your answers are true and correct, and the information can be considered throughout the visa process.

Why the detail matters

A misunderstanding, a careless answer or an inconsistency can create a problem that was avoidable. Dates that do not line up between sections, a name spelled differently from the passport, a previous visa left out because it was long ago.

None of that is dishonesty. It is what happens when a long official form is filled in quickly, alone, in a second language. It is also exactly what a review catches.

Our version of the DS-160 questions is written in plain language, with an explanation beside the ones that most often catch people out. Your answers are then read by a person before anything is finalised.
