Hello guys,

I have a question for my sister who lives in India, married and have 2 kids. Her family application for i-130 is filed by my US Citizen parent. She wants to visit US as my mom had a Stroke about a year and she is half paralyzed and would probably never be able to visit India again. She would like to see Mom.

My question is Can she apply for visitor visa for herself n her husband and kids or just herself showing her ties back in India and just wanted to visit USA to see her ill mom. My mom wants to see her grand kids too but wanted to know which chances are positive to get visa at least for someone. What are her chances of getting approved. Anyone had that experience before ?

Thanks Alot.

Yes she can apply, but her chances of approval are slim.

Most likely the decision will be made before she enters the building for the "interview", but anything she has to prove ties to India, and to show that she must return after he trip to the US, would be useful.

They will know about the parents anyway.

Of course they can apply.
