[Caresse33 87]

Hi , I am trying to register to have my passport returned to me. I am unsure on the option , I already have appointment for 6th March 2020. I have chosen the option register for interview(fiance, spouse, and child). Now it’s asking me for DS-160 number to register, what is that? Is this the same as DS-260 number, I am confuse. Please kindly help

DS-160 are for non immigrant visas. Consulates tend to have different methods of how to register for Home Delivery. Usually the delivery and payment for home delivery can be done on ustraveldocs.com, but some consulates may be different.

I suggest you read there for more info on delivery and courier services.

I was selecting the wrong option, I figured it out now. The only things is that an error message appear saying this case number is not ready for appointment. This is weird as I have an appointment date.

Give it a day and try again. It will recognize your case number when the system is ready for you to proceed.
