KUWAIT, March 3 (KUNA) -- The US Embassy has launched a new, streamlined
DS-160 visa application that replaces and combines all previous forms.
In a press release on Wednesday, the embassy said that all non-immigrant
visa applicants -- including tourists, businesspeople, those participating in
training, students, exchange visitors, and temporary workers -- will use this
new form.
"The new application minimally alters the application process for visa
applicants.
"With the new form, applicants will have to upload a visa photograph, and
submit the form via the Internet. The applicant will print just one
confirmation sheet upon completion of the DS-160," it said.
However, it noted that the rest of the steps would remain the same, in that
"applicants must pay the visa application fee at Burgan Bank, schedule an
appointment, and appear at the Consular Section for an interview."(end)
