if she wants to stay for a visit, she need to get a tourist visa from here home country.

i'm assuming she has a working visa for the disney cruise ship? she can't use that visa to change or adjust status inside the us.

Her port is miami....can she apply for it while she is here?my friend in ireland was thai and she apply for tourist visa at US embassy in dublin and got one for US...she wanted to visit after her contract was up on ship...can she go to office in miami and apply there?

Couple of questions. What type of visa is she here on? Does the visa have any home stay at all? Has show had any over stays? From looking at your time line it look like you applied for a K1 back in December. When she has the interview for the K1 that will take place in Bangkok. If you wanted her to get a tourist visa then she would have to apply in Bangkok for that as well unless she already has one.

There is no USEmbassy in Miami (or anywhere else in the CONUS) in which to apply for a tourist visa.

What other ports of call does the ship have, outside the USA? I ask, just in case she gets close to a US Consulate or Embassy where the ship docks.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

The real issue is understanding what is required. She can not get a visa To the USA while she is IN the USA. She also cant use the work visa she has to stay in the USA.

She will have to apply at an American embassy which are all outside the USA. She will probably have to return to Thailand to even attempt this.

These tourist visas are difficult to obtain for anyone. This girl has demonstrated the ability to leave Thailand and work but she can also prove she came back. That may help her. She will have to understand the " strongest ties " rule to have a chance of getting a tourist visa. Is there is a petition for a K 1 she can forget any chance of a tourist visa.
