Quick Question About DS-160

[NDP22 11]

My fiance has filled out the DS-160 and is about to schedule her interview but we have a question about the wording of a couple of things. The DS-160 is indicated as a "nonimmigrant" application. However, when she goes to choose on what type of immigrant she is on the scheduling page, and she chooses nonimmigrant, K-1/I-129f is not an option, it's only an option under immigrant. Is this normal/correct? We are just wanting to be sure that this is all correct.

 

Thanks!

K-1 visa is not an immigrant visa so she has to choose the non-immigrant type.

A K1 is a non immigrant visa but it is interviewed by the immigrant visa unit.  You schedule the interview with the immigrant unit

On the top of her confirmation for the DS-160, it says nonimmigrant but when she goes to schedule, the only option for K1 is under the category "immigrant".

Yes, it is completely normal.

Okay, just wanting to make sure we were doing everything correctly. They definitely don't give a clear picture or path to take, that's for sure. 😂 

 

Thanks everyone!
