If the forms were not filled online, I don’t think there is a way of correcting it except that, you carry the actual printout and another printout with corrections highlighted.

This is the reply I got for the same question hope it helps!

Dear Sir / Madam,

Thank you for your email.

Ø Modification on the application forms is not allowed from Q- 1 to Q-14 on the DS 156. Only from Q-15 onwards modification is possible. For DS-157 & DS-158, there are no such restrictions. If you wish to modify:

ü Logon to our website. Go to apply for a nonimmigrant visa.

ü Go to retrieve/modify option.

ü Enter the HDFC Bank receipt details and retrieve your application.

ü You can then modify DS-156 from (Q-15 onwards), DS-157, DS-158 (if applicable) and petition details.

Ø You can modify your application 2 days prior to your interview. The system will not allow you to modify within two days of your interview as the data will be downloaded and handed over to the Consulate. Any modification after that will have to be done at the Consulate at the time of your interview.




Thanking you
