All denial reasons for B visas are stipulated in law.

All visas for which there are quotas (such as certain family based and employment visas, as well as individual country limits) are also stipulated in law.

There is no stipulation in law that I am aware of that that mentions anything about quotas for tourist visas.

Of course, logic never manages to counter conspiracy theories.

I'd still like to see a CO put it in writing... ;)

Hello,

I'm a US citizen and my wife is a Green Card holder. My mother-in-law, who lives in Ukraine, wants to visit us. She's retired and her retirement income is not sufficient to cover her trip, so I'll be paying for her trip to the US.

What documents/proof of finances do I need to provide, if I list myself in the "Person/Entity Paying for Your Trip" field on the DS-160 application?

Thank you for any suggestions.

HI, I'm in a similar situation except I'm a US citizen and paying for my mother.. Any updates on your case?
