I'm a US citizen, my son (10 mths old) US citizen, my wife Singaporean and US Green Card, and mother-in-law Singaporean.
I have been living and working in Asia for the past 8 years. My mother-in-law lives with us. My company is relocating me temporarily to the US for a 2 year assignment, after which time I plan to move back to Asia. We applied for a visitor visa for my mother-in-law and was rejected on the basis we believe that she didn't have strong ties to Singapore and didn't demonstrate she would not be moving to the US permanently.
We will be reapplying again. This time around my company will provide a letter stating my stay is just two years.
Question: 1) does the above regulation apply in our case? 2) what else can we provide to help our case?
