Hello Everyone,

My husband has been here 11 months tomorrow, after arriving on a K-1 visa. His parents would like to visit and only visit. I'm just wondering how to go about it. They are not wealthy at all and they are not professionals, but they do have a good size savings in the back, from money my FIL received from a pension he received from a company he worked for for many years. He has been at his current job for the school system for 12 years. They own their home and they just finished remodeling it.

I'm thinking they should present as ties:

-Letters from employers stating they are expected back

-Proof of home ownership

-Proof of savings in the bank

ork

What other things should they include? They have already gotten their passports. Would mentioning that they would like to visit us work in their favor or against them?

What should they do now that they have Mexican passports? Thanks for your help!

They apply for toursit visa on their own merit. Those doucments you mentioned sound good enough but some consulate do not even ask for them. You could only try; the application fee is the only thing at stake.

They will be asked their purpose of visit and should never lie. These people have a reason why they ask for mother/fathers names from each applicant so they could easily look up their records and see that their son is in the U.S.

best wishes.

Thanks for the reply! We would never encourage them to lie. We'll get on this.
