Hi guys! I am curious if anyone who is applying for a K1visa and are filling out the DS-160 form are having issues with the rapid session timeouts, crashing and just not saving sections properly?
My case is finally at the Consulate in Montreal (14 months later but woo!) And I'm trying to get a jump on the application early so I have it all ready to submit when the time comes, however the frustration is real with the consistent issues with the CEAC website. I am using a Mac with High Seirra and the latest version of Chrome. My fiancee even tried as well and the same problem. Saved the files to my desktop and on the server and same issue. Tried different browsers and platforms and nada.It only seems to be the Work and Education History that is not saving correctly and crashing when it does. I have not contacted the Consulate yet regarding the glitchy site, but wanted to know if anyone else is having the same problem before I have them file a tech ticket. Thanks all for any input and if I am not the only one!
Cheers!

Hi Jen,
We just did it a week ago and yes it was a crazy rollercoaster. We were using a mac as well, with Chrome. Here's what worked for us, (there were a ton of visits to the US and that's where we ran into the most problems) so we would add about 4 things, then his the 'NEXT' button, then save, then exit and go in again. When we got back to the screen to add more US visits, the ADD + button would be greyed out. So, we REMOVED - the last one we put in and voila, the ADD + button would show up and we would race to get about 4 more trips catalogued, then hit the NEXT button, then saved, then exited then came back in and kept going til it was finished. As soon as it says "YOU HAVE 1 MORE MINUTE BEFORE TIMEOUT" (or whatever it says) you're a dead duck, get out as fast as you can but the trick is to save and exit before you see that pesky warning.
