2)      In DS160 Address and phone section, do I enter my India home address in Bangalore OR my USA address ?



3)      What do I enter in Intended length of stay in the US? (I plan to continue working for several years in USA)



4)      Previous Work Experience :  I’ve worked in india for two companies (2006-07 ; 2007-09).

  1. If they have asked for it, then yes mention the SSN

  2. India’s address and phone number

  3. Same as your petition validity dates

  4. Yes, mention those two if they were within past 5 years. I think it says work experience in past 5 years.

  5. I thought the question was " Have you attended any educational institutions at a secondary level or above?". If they have changed to high school and above then yes mention 11th and 12th as well.
