You are required to furnish the following forms and documents in support of your visa application:

Confirmation page of the application form DS-160;

Please see our SlideShare presentation for tips and guidance relating to Form DS-160, including what to do if you are
unsure how to answer a particular question, and what you can do if you experience technical problems, realize you have
made a mistake, or if you cannot retrieve your DS-160 confirmation page.

Appointment confirmation page (if relevant);


A passport or other travel document: Your passport or travel document must contain multiple pages. U.S. visas are
printed into a passport or travel document, not as a separate document or card, which means that one blank page
is required for a visa to be printed. In addition, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) recommend that at least
one more blank page is available for your passport to be stamped if you are admitted to the United States. For
certain nationalities, the passport or other travel document must be valid for at least six months beyond the
proposed stay in the United States. The six-month requirement does not apply to United Kingdom passports. If you
will be applying for a visa using a passport of a different nationality, please click here to find out if the validity
requirement applies. If your passport is damaged, we recommend that you obtain a new passport before applying
for the visa to avoid any delay in the processing of your application;
One 5 x 5 cm (2” by 2”) color photograph taken within the last six months: If you have successfully uploaded a
photograph to the DS-160, you are not required to submit an additional photograph with your application. If there
are any issues with the uploaded photograph, however, you will be required to provide a new one which may delay
the processing of your application;
