1..Yes you must fill another DS-160 in order to update the information of one of your siblings. U.S. embassy will do background checks on both siblings therefore, their information on DS-160 must be accurate.

2▪︎ After filling the new DS-160, all you will have to do is to raise a support ticket from their AVITS profile requesting the U.S embassy to update the DS-160. After 24hrs which the update must have been validated then you will have to print another appointment letters. The appointment letters will reflect the new ds-160 confirmation number which means everything is in order.
This procedure is free of charge and it does not affect your parents current appointment.

3● You will have to register for them on OIS. They will initiate the pick up of their passports by creating profiles just like they did on AVITS.

Bro us embassy will not do any background checks on any siblings especially not if you’re applying for a visitors visa. They won’t even do a background check on you. The visa decision lies solely on the interview that will last between 3 to 5 minutes and any other us immigration info they have in you. The only time you should expect a background check is if you go for an interview and they give you 221g. Apart from that, they don’t send you like that to go and be doing background checks. Do you know how many visas are processed daily??

This is a dicey situation because embassy warned you.
Quickly login to your Avits profile and click on Reschedule appointment. Once you are able to Reschedule then update your ds-160 and print out a new appointment letter.

** I just hope that the grace is available for you otherwise you will pay another visa fee. 👌

I tried but my DS160 was submitted since March

IjeObi:
I scheduled an interview appointment for November 17 when I first paid. I downloaded and printed my appointment letter. But after some time, I saw an October date and took it. However, my appointment confirmation letter carries the November date. Do I need to print a new appointment letter to bear the new appointment date and time or does the old one work? Will it matter what date the letter carries since my account on AVITS carries the October date?

VisaZest:
Hi,

If I understand you correctly, you are asking if you should print the appointment letter for your new appointment and the answer is definitely yes. When you still have ample time to print, there's no need taking the risk of having an appointment letter that says November when your new date is in October.

All the best with your application!

Please how do I fill that I have a business of my own along with my primary job when filling my DS-160?
I ask because there’s only a provision for a primary occupation and then previous jobs.

How best do I add an additional source of income?

Lekan2348:
You can’t add it, you can bring it up during the interview

Your wife (the petitioner) can file for a green card for you (the beneficiary). You can handle the process yourself as it is pretty straightforward. You can also use a lawyer if there are issues in your background e.g. prior overstay or other immigration-related issues etc.

The process can take a while so be prepared. A colleague has been on this for 2 years (will be 2 years in Sept) and his wife just received her embassy interview letter. In their case though, the petitioner had to resubmit his tax documents so it may have been shorter if the resubmission was not required.

You can get more info from USCIS here: https://www.uscis.gov/i-130

There is also a NL where you can ask questions about this although they are further along in the process (NVC stage): https://www.nairaland.com/3979737/nvc-processing-stage-u-family/200

Good luck!

Hi guys,

My mother recently got her 5 years Visa Approved. She has been to the US about 10 years ago and stayed about 6 weeks. Is there an advisable number of days she can stay for? Currently, booked her flight and she is to stay for about 80 days but hearing rumours that she might have issue with the duration.

I’m sure that this 3 months visa will be reversed soon when Nigeria’s immigration comes back to their senses.it is just America retaliating to the fact that Nigeria issues 3 months visa to their citizens
