Many of our clients and their employees have been very frustrated by the Department of State (DOS)’s new DS-160 nonimmigrant visa application form that may be completed only on-line. The principal complaint is that the application website “times out” every few minutes even if one is actively working on the application, so applicants must save their work every few minutes to avoid losing data.

DOS is accepting comments on both the content, and usage burden of applications of the form, so if you have complaints, you may share your experiences with DOS at VisaRegs@state.gov Subject line must read DS-160 Reauthorization and be submitted by November 7, 2010.
