Hi all,

Im a UKC (by birth and a HKC from my parents) and my fiance is a USC and we'll be marrying in the US while im on the VWP next month. I will be returning back to the UK (got a new nursing post starting on the 1st october! XD) We'll be applying for a CR1 visa towards the end of this year. We'll be planning a wedding (we'll call it a vow renewal since we'd already be married) in the US for when i get approved (assuming i do).

My parents are UK citizens and HK citizens. They retired back to HK a few years back and they want to be there for our vow renewal when we hold it in the states.

So my question is, is it hard for HK citizens to get a tourist visa?

Or would it be ok for them to use their UK passport and travel on VWP? Im not sure how it would work since they reside in the HK at the moment.

Would any one be able to give me some advice? Thanks in advance

They should be able to travel on the VWP without issues.
