Change of family member DS-160 for B2 Interview process

[Shah241]

Hi,

I have question regarding B2 Visa change of interview person. I completed DS-160 for my parents and have booked Interview/Biometrics dates for July 2023. They cannot travel to US and go for interview anymore due to their health.

1. I wanted to know if there is any way I can replace my parents DS-160 with my sister & her husband’s DS-160 and they can go for interview. Is this possible to do? I can change the information in US visa docs as needed with new information.

2. If I have to cancel the July appointment and rebook for later date that is fine also. I have already paid for two B2 slots. As my parents cannot travel anymore, I don’t want the visa dates to be wasted if my sister can use it. Do I need to contact US visa docs support for this?

Thank you

Unfortunately, you cannot replace your parents' DS-160 application with your sister and her husband's DS-160 application. Each individual applying for a US visa must submit their own DS-160 application. Therefore, your sister and her husband will need to complete their own DS-160 application and book their own interview/biometric appointment.

If you need to cancel the July appointment and rebook for a later date, you can do so by logging into your account on the Consular Electronic Application Center (CEAC) website and canceling the existing appointment. You can then book a new appointment for your sister and her husband at a later date that works for them. You do not need to contact the US visa support for this. H‑E‑B Partner Services

1. It may be possible to replace your parents' DS-160 with your sister and her husband's DS-160, but you will need to contact the US Embassy or Consulate where the interview was scheduled to confirm the process and any requirements for such a change. They will be able to advise you on the necessary steps to take and any additional documents that may be required. Dunkin Runs on You

2. If you need to cancel the July appointment and rebook for a later date, you should be able to do so through the same system where you originally booked the appointment. However, if you have any concerns or questions about this process, you can contact the US Embassy or Consulate where the appointment was scheduled for further guidance.

Thank you Robbieellis and Abbey8 for the Answers. It looks like safe way is to cancel the July appointment and then book new appointment with newly created DS-160's for my sister family and rebook it for later date.
