Form DS-160 - State Department Announces Nonimmigrant Visa Electronic Application Procedure as an Alternative to Submission of Form DS-156.

The State Department will officially announce a procedure on 29 April, 2008 allowing the nonimmigrant’s to apply for the nonimmigrant visa electronically instead of the paper filing DS-156.

  • The procedure is the same for the nonimmigrant visa applicant except that he or she will not be required to print and sign a form to take to the visa interview.

  • The applicant will be required to click on the box designated “Sign Application” found within the certification section of the application.

  • By signing the Form DS-160 electronically (i.e., clicking on the “Sign Application” box), the applicant certifies that the information provided is correct.
