Some questions about DS-260 forms

Hi, I have a couple of questions concerning the DS-260.
I have completed and submitted the form a month ago, and I have now realized that I forgot to include the middle names of both of my parents. They never use those names, but they actually appear in my birth certificate, which includes my parents’ names.
Would you recommend requesting KCC to unlock the form to correct this information? There shouldn't be any delay by unlocking it at this point, right (I am a DV2017 selected)?
I have a master’s degree, and I indicated 3 institutions attended in the form: 2 universities and 1 high school; should I also have included the primary school in the list?
Many thanks!

Probably best to unlock to include the full names. Perhaps double check everything else to ensure you don't have to unlock again, just because it's a bit of a hassle.
As I recall, the DS asks for secondary and higher education only? Anyway afaik most people don't list their primary schools. We didn't. So that should be fine as you have it. (There was one case we heard of where an embassy insisted on it, for someone from a neighboring country that has something of a reputation for fraud, but ...that seems a rare situation.)
Hi Susie, thanks a lot for your reply. I have checked the form so many times before submitting… and still I missed something!
In a couple of months I will change my present address (in the same city, but don’t know yet where)… is this also something that requires an update of the DS-260? Should I wait 2 months before doing all the changes?
Cheers

1. The question is about education "completed" - past tense. So the answer is "High school diploma". 2. You can't do that because the form will not accept the future date. Your "occupation" should be "a student". If you are working, as well as studying, then fill both "primary" and "other occupation".
