I am a PhD student on F1 visa. I have a friend in India who wants to visit USA. I want to help her get the visa but I am not sure if my invite will go against her application or support her application.
Points in her favor:
1. She has a stable government job as an Ayurvedic doctor in Himachal Pradesh.
2. She has sufficient financial resources to fund her trip.
3. Her father, brother and all her relatives are in India.
4. She wants to visit US for just a week.
Points against her visa:
1. She is unmarried and under 30 years of age.
2. She doesn't have a property in India on her name.
My questions:
1. Should I send her a letter of invitation? Will my letter support her case or would it seem as if I would marry her? ( We don't intend to. )
2. She has a stable job (Rs 25-30k per month) and a saving of about Rs 2-3 lacs so far. Should she save more before applying for US visa?
3. How likely is it that she will get a visa? Should she even bother applying?
4. Any other advice?
