This revision focuses on maintaining only the legally required data for consular processing while continuing to use the electronic submission system.

As part of this update, DOS will discontinue the paper version, Form DS-230, effective November 1, 2025. Public comments on the proposed revisions are due by September 8, 2025. Applicants should prepare for DS-260 to become the only accepted form for immigrant visa processing moving forward.
