DS-160

[Pedro26 0]

We are approved and passed the 1st step for a K1 Visa.  My fiancé is in Colombia.  I have read mixed information.  Does she need to fill out the DS-160?  A friend said we need to complete the DS-160 before the interview for K1.  But our advisor in Colombia said the DS-160 is for tourist.  Any information or guidance will be greatly appreciated.  

 

Thank you,

Pete G.

Please complete your timelines. You have to complete DS-160. Advisor is wrong

Don't use that 'advisor' again! They're completely wrong, you do have to complete the DS-160 (it's for lots of different visas, not just tourist visas). Follow the guide at the top of the page.

Get rid of your "Advisor" in Columbia. The DS-160 is for any Non-Immigrant visa, which the K-1 is. It must be filled out before you can schedule an interview with the embassy
