I am sailing from last 6 years onboard as engineer and visited many us ports (only visited not stepped down)by ship only. Applying for us visa first time. Should i mention have u visited US before option -yes ?? Kindly help if u have anything information. Thanks in advance

[@musafir_10]

You ll get it 👍 No visiting US is by visa only . Sailing doesn’t counts.

[@iansten]

I know that I should carry all my passports, but previously I sailed using Panama CDC, I have 2 of them but they aren't valid anymore (Got a new Indian CDC now) , so when asked about CDC should I give them all my previous CDC as well? As my past experience is reflected on them and the new CDC is blank.

Yes declare all your documents. Plus you can ask your Manning agency about it as well.
