Appointment and fees for parents (split)

[Janak 0]

Hi everyone,

I have few questions and so far I didn’t get answer from anywhere, please help me with following questions;

1. My dad is 81 and mom is 73, if I schedule group interview of my mom and dad together, can both get interview waiver as primary visa applicant is my dad who is 81 years old or I have to schedule their interview separately?

1. I have paid MRV/Visa interview fees for my mom and dad together 320$ and the receipt has only one number of fees payment. If I schedule visa appointment for my mom and dad separately, can I use the same receipt number for both appointments?

1. Can I schedule separate visa interview appointments for my dad and mom in same CGI account or I have to open new cgi account for my mom?

It would be a great help if someone can reply me back with answers to my questions at soonest possible.

Which consulate are they applying at?  The US consulate in my home country requires that MRV payments be made separately for each applicant -- ie, each applicant must have their own unique receipt number.

Mumbai-India.

 

Actually I have planned their single interview together but then I found my dad can get interview waiver but my mom has to appear for it. So this situation arise

Why not just petition them for immigrant visas?   Isn’t it the plan that they will stay and adjust status?
