Dear OP,

 

I understand why you ask the question about invitation letters.  In India, one must have an official invitation to apply for a tourist visa.  This does not apply in the US.  Your parents will have to apply for a visitor's visa strictly on their own merits.  Your graduation (wedding, baby, whatever) is wonderful, but it is not part of the visa process for entry into the US.

 

Good luck to your parents, and congratulations to you.

 

Other Visa Journey people, please do not assume people are stupid or clueless when they ask questions like this that are common in their own countries.  Some gentle guidance is all that is needed in this case.

It’s just that we see it time and time again, there is a pinned post, and yet the misconception persists.

Just to clarify..my mother is not a Kuwaiti citizen and not a Kuwaiti resident and she applied from US embassy in Algeria (North Africa).

 

when you fill the visa form they ask who you will be paying for the trip and she listed him as the sponsor.

It has nothing to do with you; it is all about them and their circumstances. 

 

They need to prove they have the financial means to travel to the US and stay for whatever amount of time and they need to demonstrate they have strong ties to their home country. 

 

Where are they from?

 

 

Hey,, In case they don't get approved for the visitor visa. My husband will apply for them when eligible (when he becomes a US citizen).  He has his green card for 5 months now. Will the denial of their visitor visa effect them getting approved for I-130?

 

Thank you!

Hey I have another question for you!!

 

My husband's sister who is a Canadian citizen  applied for them (family based), so the parents-in-law are visiting her. What kind of visa will they need if they want to visit USA, being that they are a tourist in Canada themselves.. Thank you!!

Their citizenship won't change just from being tourists in Canada.  So they will still need B visitor visa to visit the US.
