U.S. nonimmigrant visa applicants need to complete Form DS160 on the CEAC portal (https://ceac.state.gov) to be able to schedule a visa appointment. We have noticed that applicants have been facing issues while trying to access their application using this portal since this morning.

At the time of this writing, the immigrant visa application form DS260 is not impacted by this technical glitch.

We are hopeful that this will be resolved in a few hours. Applicants need to be patient and try accessing their application after a few hours.
