We haven't started any immigrant visa yet since he works in Chile a d so do I. I just would like to know the exact information I should provide the embassy. We would like to stay for a month and then come back to Chile. I am an English teacher and I work for the government so I guess that would be a help.

Thank you guy us for your time and advice.

You apply for a B-2 visa at the U.S. consulate. They will want you to convince them that you'll return to Chile when the vacation is over, and if you can do that, you'll get your visa.

The requirements for a visitor visa are the same. You need to fill out the application and schedule an interview. Take documentation along that show the ties you have to Chile, such as mortgage, paystubs, car registration, bank statements (which also can help you show evidence of your financial ability to pay for the trip). You may also take your husband's id card to show he is a resident of Chile at the time and his paystubs as well to show he has a stable job. Although your husband is an American, that he has ties to Chile should also count in your favor, for he is the biggest tie you have to that country.

I wish you luck in your interview and hope you can get your visa without any issues! Good luck!

Check out the US Embassy website, under visas (non-immigrant). They are very straight forward about their visa process. Please do not buy your plane tickets until you have the tourist visa in your hands (having plane tickets will not help your visa cause). They will be looking for information that shows that you have strong ties to Chile and therefore will be returning. Such evidence could include: having bought a house, that you are renting, going to school, owning a vehicle and enough money in your savings to get you to the States and back. Bring all the documents they require and any evidence that supports your cause. As far as I understand, most of their process is now electronic. Make sure you have uploaded all the documents they require and that you print off any documents that must be taken (including the interview date reservation confirmation). Best of luck!
