Rak234 Posted June 6, 2017 Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 Hi, First of all, Thanks for this forum. This forum is really helpful for applying visitor visa and clearing many doubts. I am On H1B visa and my husband is on H4- EAD. I tried two times for visitor visa (B2) for my Father in-law and Mother in-law over the period of 4 months. First time rejected after 3rd question could not answer properly, so they tried for second time with good preparation of questions and answers. Second time even after answering all questions properly after 3 rd question they refused visa under 214(b). My In laws have own home, farm land, son and daughter in India but same was not asked and even not allowed to show any document. Visa has been sponsored by me in DS 160 form as a "Other Relative" option. My questions are: 1) What could be problem ? 3) When they should apply further If they want to? Thanks & Regards, Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted June 6, 2017 Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 What was the third question? Did you involve a "visa agent"? Link to comment
JoeF Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 So, what were the questions they didn't answer properly? Without knowing that, how could we know what the problem could be? Oh, and there is no sponsoring for visitor visas. You may pay for the trip, but that's not sponsorship. Link to comment
Rak234 Posted June 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Thanks for the reply. Questions: 1) why you are going? - A visiting USA. Travel some places and meet family. 2) Where do I work? 3) where do my husband work? Only these 3 questions asked. My father in-law is retired govt servant. I have not used any agent.

pontevecchio Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 They should be able to apply in say 6 months and choose their language for the interview if available. If you think it appropriate have them contact the firm of Murthy in Chennai. I would let them apply on their own . Link to comment
Rak234 Posted June 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Thanks. Sure I will prefer to contact Murthy in Chennai next time. Regards, Link to comment

Regards, The answer to question 1 likely was the problem. That's a completely useless boilerplate answer which shows that they haven't even thought about the trip at all (or were lying about the travel reason, which is likely what the officer assumed.) For example: the USA is a big country, what places do they want to travel to, what places do they want to visit? And why? Really, somebody who wants to travel for tourism informs himself or herself about the sights they wish to see. Link to comment
