Work contract in other country- tourist visa for USA?

[GodsGift225 54]

Your mother must apply on her own merits- seeing her new grandbaby is a good reason to get a tourist visa, but she must show she has compelling reasons to return home later (husband staying home, minor kids and grandkids, a good job, property etc).

Your MIL cannot come here to do childcare- that is considered work, and she would be denied.

However, she can certainly come and visit her new grandbaby- it's a fine line, but be careful how she talks about why she wants a tourist visa when the interview comes around.

Sorry to jack the thread, but I have a question, How does it work for someone who got a visa with a work contract in other county? How can that person go about traveling to USA?

same as any other applicant....they must convince the CO that he/she will depart the US after a visit and not work without permission while visiting.

I assume you mean countRy? Ie you are going to travel to a country to work and before you do, would like to spend a few weeks in the USA as a tourist? As the previous reply said, you need to apply for the B2 tourist visa and show prove you will leave. In your case, rather than showing ties to your home country, you can attempt to show that you will leave because you have an important work contract in a third country. If it is lucrative work, there is a good chance the tourist visa wil be granted. It will depend on what ties you have to the USA though- for example a US citizen spouse will count against you.
