Do I need to apply and pay again after my visa application was denied due to a mismatched passport number?

Wayne North fair point. It could be he's making errors when writing on the form. For instance, adding full stops etc where not needed, as he's done in his posts.

Does little good double checking as the eform doesn't allow to delete and reload attachments. To my surprise, the embassy processing my visas request actually called me about my bank statements i loaded. They didn't like it was a two page document the bank furnished me. Now they want statements from dfas and ssn and said they would request them direct, for me to upload when received. I'm scheduled to depart on the 21st. don't think I'm going to make it, plus I'm booked on Qatar air with connecting flight in Qatar.
