Please help!!

I initially scheduled my appointment for February 19th 2025, after requesting emergency appointment, I was able to schedule for a new date of November 25th, 2024. The problem is when I print my confirmation letter, it is still showing the old date. How can I resolve this?

It’s better not to mention your brother because he stayed back which shows you will do the same. F1 is non-immigrant visa which means you must return after study. Also that’s why you get asked, what’s your plan after getting the degree? They wanna know your intent of returning.
Nobody ties your brother with you unless you mention it. Americans don’t assume that because you bear same surname, you are brothers.

Thank you for your help.

I didn’t mention in my DS-160 form that my older brother lives in the U.S. Can I fill out a new DS-160 with that information and bring both forms to my interview? I’m concerned that if they ask me about family in the U.S. and I say no, they might already have my brother's information in the system, which could make me look dishonest. But if I say yes, it would create inconsistencies since I didn’t include him in my DS-160.

For context, I’ll be going for my F-1 visa interview. My brother was also an F-1 student but is now on an H-1B visa working full-time.
