mistake on DS-260 -what to do

[bukerjw 0]

Hi,

I just realized I made a mistake when filling out my DS-260.

I put the wrong city for my mother's place of birth. The cities are somewhat close geographically, but on my birth certificate, there is one listed and on my DS-260 application another one is listed.

Will this pose a problem? What should I do?

I guess you can bring it up at the time of the interview.

at least your ds 260 was not acting up like it did with me!!

I called NVC and informed them, when I did it. They said they could not "open up" my form for correction. I asked them to make a note of it on my file and I was told to tell them at the interview. It took me over 6 hrs to do that form. I am sure others have made "simple" mistakes also. I did sweat over it though till I spoke with them.
