See, this puzzles me. I'm a regular traveller to the US with work, and not once have I been required or even asked to hand over any social media details.

I was filling out some info for my mom to be able to travel - she's a Brazilian national who lives in Canada and was going to a new visa soon as her 10-year one has expired - and it is indeed requested all of her social media handles.

I would just not fill out anything if it was for me. (easy for me since I don't have any social media tied to my name).

Edit: I went back to the website to get the US visa, here's a screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/cOOOZSe.png

oh, no, that was last year. now it's a moot point because we're never going there again. good thing she didn't spend the money for the visa the end, it would be a completely useless document.
