B1/B2. Primary occupation with side business in DS-160
Hi! I declared my parents’ primary occupations in their DS-160s (government employee and seafarer). However, our family also has a small side business that I didn’t include because I didn’t see a separate field in the DS-160 where we could declare it.
We’re planning to mention the family business during the interview if the officer asks about my parents’ sources of income/occupation ("seaman, and I manage our *family business* while I'm home")
Would that be okay kahit hindi dineclare sa DS-160? Or should we avoid mentioning it since it wasn’t included in the application? Or gawa ako ng bagong DS-160? Thank you!
