How to Fill Out the DS-160 Form: A Step-by-Step Guide
The DS-160 Form, which is mandatory for US visa applications, is a detailed electronic visa form that is filled out online. It is very important that the form is completed accurately and in full for the application to proceed smoothly. Here are the key points you need to know when filling out the form:
1. Fill Out the Form on the Official Website
The DS-160 can only be filled out on the official website of the U.S. Department of State. It is recommended that you avoid third-party websites.
2. Use Only English Alphabet Letters
All information on the form must be written using the English alphabet.
*Turkish characters (ç, ğ, ı, İ, ö, ş, ü) should not be used.
3. Must Be 100% Identical to Your Passport Information
Your first name, last name, date of birth, and other identity information must be exactly the same as on your passport.
Errors such as extra letters, missing letters, or incorrect dates may cause problems during your visa interview.
4. Indicate Your Other Citizenships
If you are a citizen of another country besides Turkey, you must declare this information correctly on the form. Concealed or incorrectly entered information may be grounds for rejection.
5. Upload the Correct Photo
A recent digital photo that meets US standards must be attached. Inappropriate photos may prevent the form from being approved.
6. Save the Form and Print the Confirmation Page
You can save the form as a draft during the filling process and continue later.
The Confirmation Page generated in the final step is mandatory to bring to the visa interview.
