kushalkumar Posted March 21, 2019 Report Share Posted March 21, 2019 I reside in the US on a H1B visa with my wife who is on H4. I am planning to get my mother-in-law (who runs her own NGO after retirement from job), sister-in-law (who is a doctor), her husband(Government service) & their 1 year old daughter for a 15 days trip to US as tourists. They will all be sponsoring their own expense for this trip(answering yes to the DS160 question that asks who is sponsoring the trip). I am seeking your guidance to get clarity on what are the financial documents that they need to submit for their B2 visa interview and what should be the safe monetary amount that is expected of them to be owned individually to get their visa approved smoothly. Please advise. Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted March 21, 2019 Report Share Posted March 21, 2019 No documents are necessary. The VO will decide based on a couple of minutes interaction and judge their credibility. You are not getting them. They are visiting you. The VO is looking for spontaneous answers which do not seem coached. Link to comment
Provence Posted March 21, 2019 Report Share Posted March 21, 2019 Sponsorship is not a term used in conjunction with a US b2 visa. The specific question on the ds160 is "person/entity paying for your trip". No documents needed, no documents required, no documents submitted. They apply, pay the fee, and appear at the interview. CO decides who, if any, qualify for a visa following the interview, which lasts a mere 2-3 minutes. Link to comment
