You cannot sponsor your parents..they should do it themselves..and moreover your passport has nothing to do with their visit.

Read posts in this forum before you post similar one. There is no sponsorship for visitor's visa and your status in US is immaterial.

Your status is no way related to your parents visiting visa/

Thanks for all your replies.

My understanding is I can send my parents for visitor visa interview with my current passport copy and there won't be any problem as my passport is expiring in 2 mons.

 

Thanks

At the outset the applicant is expected to evidence strong family, financial and social ties to home country to overcome the presumption of immigrant intent under Sec. 214(b) of Immigration and Nationality Act. The consular officers generally decide the outcome of a visa application based on the information presented in DS-160 visa application and elicited at the visa interview. They seldom verify the documents carried by the applicant(s).  In some instances, the officer may review the documents to verify if the inviting relative / friend continue to maintain his/his immigration status in the U.S. and validity of passport should not impact the visa application as long as s/he has taken timely steps to renew the same.
