I have submitted my DS-160 and booked appointment. But, in DS 160, i did a small mistake. In DS 160 application, for place of birth, i eneterd the city name instead of my village name (Because, in application, it was asked to enter city name). But, I came to know that if place of birth in passport and DS 160 should be same.
As I already submitted DS 160, If I correct the place of birth, it is generating a new application number. We need to update this number again in visa appointment application.
Please suggest me what is the best way to handle here.
Hi RaNa,
Thank you for your answer. Recently, I read in one forum. One person has the same issue. In the last minute, he corrected the place of birth.
In my case, if I update the place of birth, it will generate a new application number. So, How should I update this number in visa appointment page. because in visa appointment, we have ds 160 confirmation number and \MRV receipt number. Please advise.

Writing this on March 28, 2024. Upon submission of DS-160, you realized that you have entered CITY name instead the place of birth appeared in passport (as like me )….
Here is what I have followed eventually which costed me some time
just retrieve your submitted application and provide all your personal details. Then you gonna see two options something like… one is confirmation page print AND other one as create a new application.
Select create a new application…(do not worry most of your personal information submitted earlier will be appended to this new application form). Go a head and make a necessary corrections, REVIEW and submit.
As per US visa information help desk - once we submit, we gonna get new confirmation number. While appearing at the consulate for your biometric AND interview, please carry both OLD and NEW confirmation pages and inform to the staff at consulate regarding the change on DS-160 WITHOUT FAIL
