Can my fiancée’s mother attend our wedding?

[John_Wayne 0]

Hi Everybody,

I assumed that my fiancée’s mother would not be able to attend our wedding here in the USA (which means she would just visit here during the wedding and then return to the Philippines), and we were planning to have a second wedding in the Philippines later. Now, some of my fiancée’s friends are telling her differently.

Does anybody here know the details on this question?

Thank you!!

Do the MIL have a visitor visa

Your mother-in-law can attend the wwediing if she has a visitor's visa. If not, she cannot.

My fiancée’s mother does not have a visitor's visa. I'm thinking it will be next to impossible for her to get one, as she would not have sufficient money in the bank and other requirements for a visitor's visa (from my understanding). Does anybody know anything that I don't (is there any special considerations for the mother of the bride to attend the US wedding)??

Thank you,

I hear you. Unfortunately, there is no special considerations for MOB to attend the US wedding.

It's worth a shot to try, though. Worst that could happen is she doesn't get a visitor's visa.

moved from K-1 forum to Tourist visa forum as a more appropriate forum for this discussion

There is no special consideration for MIL or MOB - only VISA she would be eligible would be tourist and for that she will have to prove on her on merits that she will return back to Philipp and not stay in US - unfortunately anyone from philipp is considered as high immigration risk.
