The question is, you had to print and sign it so didn't you even read it?

No you do not print and sign the DS-260. It's done electronically online. A preparer like a lawyer can submit it.  A petitioner can submit it for a beneficiary as well.

Hello,

My experience has been, DO NOT hire a Lawyer until absolutely necessary. Try to read instructions and fill it out yourselves and/or ask friends/relatives to help you with it. My friend hired a lawyer, and he told her that her mother's income would be enough to support her husband. It gave her a few troubles (since often they try to lure you for money)... However, It's been almost 2+ years now after Interview, no update for her husband's case. (2020) I filled my husband's application with the help of my Uncle and he has guided me so far and now the case is in DQ, Alhumdullilah. (It's just my experience)

I agree. Lawyers concentration is very low on individual case. They don't care about your miseries of long distanced relationship and pain you go through. They are just there to see their $$. Our experience has been not very good so far.

I hired a lawyer too and Alhamdulilah things went good so far got dbq last month. But the thing is he made a issue on Ds260 form too . He made a slight mistake in my name 😭 but so far no harm Alhamdulilah. I hope it doesnt bring up issues during the interview? The name is Ayesha he wrote Ayesah . Soo i m guessing nothing to worry about🤔

Dear VJ Family, 

 

I am nervous while sharing that my attorney submitted the DS-260, but when i reviewed it , there were almost a dozen errors/mistakes they made into DS260" as follows:

-Mistakes in previous marriage divorce dates. 

-Mistakes in residence addresses. 

-Mistakes in schools attendance dates.

-Mistakes in passport issuance & ending dates. 

-Mistakes in showing me over-staying for 2 month in US , after finishing training, which I stayed for 1 months and thats allowed to J-1 visa holders.

-Mistake in Visa refusal question. Instated of saying "Yes" she said "NO."

-Current job nature: "Fiance" instead of Finance.  

-Wrong name of degrees/diplomas

 

I am not sure what to do, the attorney said they will write a letter to NVC for 2-3 important corrections to make e.g. visa refusal, last marriage annulment dates, or not over staying in US etc but will leave the rest of the mistakes as raising others could murky the water for the officer looking over your application.

 

GOD , help us. 

  

Please give us your valuable input/suggestion.

 

PEACE & LOVE

sorry for late response. there were many mistakes made by their intern in DS-260 form submission and it was an awful experience of making over dozen of mistakes. But attorney made a letter of corrections to the NVC by highlighting these mistakes and corrections and stating that these mistakes were occurred by them unintentionally.
