Hi Everyone,

My wife and I have been married now for two years. We would like to bring her father, mother, and brother here to the USofA to visit.

I know that all of them need to prove of ties to their country and I think we will be able to do that thru bank accounts in their names, owning a home there, etc.

We would like them to come next September for about three weeks. I guess I am asking the easy questions.."Where do I start?", "What is the process?". Does anyone have any experiance with getting Tourist Visas in Thailand? How long does it take?

I have heard of 10 year Tourist Visas. Do these exist? If so I would like to shoot for this type of Visa so if they visit again I won't have to go thru the process.

Any places on the web or here at VJ where I can get the answers or any advice from the seasoned Veterens here? :)

Thanks a million?

Start here at the US embassy in Thailand; http://bangkok.usembassy.gov/non-immigrant_visas.html

Since you have a good handle on things, it should be an easy go to apply for a visa. The embassy will determine how long a visa they will be able to obtain. It is up to their discretion as to how long the visa will be good for.
