  2. You mean you have made a mistake of the forms regarding your place of birth and date of birth if I got you right? Have you submitted the forms already? If yes then you have to contact the KCC to notify them of the mistake and ask if you are suppose to fill new set of forms and re-send to them before its too late.

  3. Given the wrong Date of Birth in the electronic application will most likely ending in a denial of the visa.

    Those requirements are used to prevent fraud. They will suspect you send duplicate entries with different date of births. Either you have to prove you used only one entry (there is no way to prove it), or your personal data, issued BEFORE the notification was printed, should match the electronic form.

    If your date of birth is not printed on other documents, do a legal backup…

    1. Yes you can process your visa from your current country. However, if you apply as a family and your family members are not with you there, it may make most sense to return to your home country and process the whole family's green cards together through the U.S. consulate there. Processing your application there when your family is abroad will mean that your family members must wait to process their green cards until USCIS has approved your adjustment and notified your home country consulate.

  8. Hi, At the time of filling eDV I did a tiny spelling mistake in my child last name, I wrote "fraghally" instead of "Faraghally" so I missed "A" letter so I corrected it in DV-260.

    Also when I wrote my address in eDV, it did not have much details then I updated it in DV-260 with more details.

    My questions are:-

    1-Does the missing letter in the last name of my child make any issue even after I corrected it in DV-260 ?

    2- Can I add details of my address in DV260 or write exactly the same address I filled in eDV without change ?

    1. So far you have made the corrections while filling the DS-260 forms there is no problem; just make sure you provide the correction as its stated in his passports and birth certificate

      2nd question: If you have change your location, yes you can change the address or add more details…

      I hope I have answered your questions?
      Good luck...
