I have this friend in Ukraine. She wants to come with her son and visit me in texas. How can I help her to come visit me. She says that she has applied for a tourist visa before but never got it. Can I sponsor her for her trip and what should we do. How do I go about doing something.

You can write a letter of invitation, saying you'd take care of her (housing, food etc), and a couple of touristy thing you plan on doing, but it won't do much good. It is up to her to qualify by showing significant ties to her home country (job, enrollement in university, property etc); a young, single/ divorced lady is unlikely to get a tourist visa. Maybe if she leaves the son behind...

You cannot sponsor a person for a visitor visa. The person must qualify on their own and show that he/she is not a risk for overstaying the visitor visa and be illegal by showing strong ties to his/her home country to overcome the presumption that all foreign nationals entering the US have the intent to immigrate.
