Minor travel from India to US without parents for vacation

[pravin883]

Hello,

 

I tried searching in the forum for a related topic, but never had luck to find the right answers.

 

I have a nephew (my cousin's son) who is 9 years old residing in India. He has already visited us in San Jose with his parents in 2013, but now I would like to get him here to spend his summer vacation with us (myself, my wife and my son) for a month. I am travelling to India on a business visit and I am planning to get him with me to the USA and my wife who will be travelling to India a month after would be travelling back with him.

 

He already has a visitor visa valid (issued from last time). But, I do not know what documents his parents have to provide and what other questions the immigration officials will ask me when he is coming into the US. What documents do I need to carry to allow him to come with me?

 

I am trying to coordinate all this as soon as possible to avoid expensive airfare.

 

Any quick help will be appreciated.

 

Regards

 

Pravin

GOOGLE parental consent for child travelling alone and get appropriate affidavits from the parents. Also specifically ask the Airline concerned about any thing else.
