DS160 questions help

Hi,

  1. I applied for h1b last year(2015) with existing passport. Expiry date for this passport is 2016 April. So, i applied for renewal and got my new passport. When filling DS160, should i mention my old passport(initaiily applied for h1) or the new one which got renewed???

  2. i have given intended date of travel as july1st 2016 when filling DS160. My employer provided the offer letter with july 15 2016, but there are no slots available till 3 months from now(october). So, if i go to stamping in october, if VO asks when ur supposed to join in july15 why did u come in october?? what should i repy

  1. New one

  2. You can say that no visa dates were available and that caused the delay.
