Hi,

I have submitted DS 160 B2 visa online application for my parents today. How long is that application valid from date of submission. As I intend to take interview date in March but due tentative date for travel is mentioned as 1st April 2019.

Please suggest.

No Expiration on the submitted DS-160 form,Validity is usualy as long as the information in the application is current and it can be used only once.

In future if you intend to update the DS-160 for some reason then a new barcode will be generated and this will be different that that one you initially submitted.
