BLS Visa Form Autofill: Our Tool Has Been Retired

The tool we built to auto-fill the BLS visa application form is no longer available. Here's what happened — and how we help businesses automate tedious work like it.

A few years ago we built a small tool that automatically filled in the BLS International visa application form. Anyone who has completed one knows why: the form is long, repetitive and easy to get wrong. Our tool pre-filled the tedious fields so applicants could finish in a fraction of the time — and it became one of the most-visited pages we ever published.

That tool has since been retired. BLS updated their portal and forms, which broke the automation, and keeping a third-party autofill tool in step with their changes isn't something we can reliably maintain. So rather than leave a half-working tool online, we took it down.

If you're filling the BLS form today, the safest route is to complete it directly on the official BLS application portal, entering your details exactly as they appear on your passport. Double-check names, dates and passport numbers before submitting — small mismatches are the usual cause of rejected applications.

The bigger idea: automating the tedious stuff

That autofill tool was a tiny example of what we actually do at Naro Dev: we build automation that removes repetitive, manual work. If your business loses hours to data entry, filling forms, copying information between systems, or generating the same reports over and over, that's exactly what we automate — reliably, and built around your own process.
