How should US passport holders fill out the city of birth on visa applications when only the state is listed?

I entered my city of birth and had no issues

Match the passport info

Same as comment above. For my husbands passport (US) we used the state, for mine (Canada) we used the city. Both done to match passports.

I messaged the NY consulate about this bc it also will auto fill and include the city and country into "City of Birth". For me, it was 'New York USA'. I messaged them and deleted USA as the previous question asks country of birth and got confirmation that it was correct.

My guess is other nationalities include cities but ours just includes states. The application and passport information need to match in the system so don't include city of birth if it is not included in your passport
