Last year, we got a multiple-entry B2 tourist visa for my step-daughter. She spent 1 month in the US with me and we returned to Mali. Now, I want to bring her for another month this summer. I am not worried about the visa because it is for multiple-entries and it doesn't expire for another 5 years. I am just wondering if there is anything I have to fill out online or otherwise before leaving? Maybe after all of these years of paperwork and documentation, it feels weird for me to travel without having filled something out first!

Do we need to fill out anything before her second trip to the US on a B2 visa?

Do we just need to bring the same sort of documentation that we did last time (showing ties to the country) just in case we are asked at the border?

Thanks in advance for your help!

No need to fill out anything beforehand. The procedure this time is the same as last time, since the visa is still valid. Bring all the documentation as you did last time just in case.

Good luck!

Thanks for responding! I thought that was the case but, like I said, it feels weird not to have to fill out a ton of documents for the embassy this time!

Thanks :)
