DS 260 | Past employer no longer functional.. now what ??

[Gorkhali 213]

In DS 260, there is a question which is about past employer ? Well the company where i worked earlier is no longer in existence. What to do ? I do have name, address, phone number (these details are from the time when company was functional)... Now as the company is not functional what to do ??

ya u have to right each and every detail in ds 260. honesty is best policy...

i understand that i have to give all the info and we are not hiding anything at all (as we have no skeleton)

Question is : in that address now they may have other organization running and the phone numbers might be used by someone else. How will i explain in DS 260 that the company is not functional any more ???

It is what it is. It doesn't matter if the business is closed. Just put the details of the business down as you knew them. I'm sure this happens all the time, and often without the applicant even knowing their past employer is no longer in business.
