Hi Everyone,
I am currently on F1 student visa status and graduating this December 2015. I am planning to apply for Visitor B2 visa for my parents. Although they have no plans to attend my graduation ceremony, which of the following was the best and easiest way to proceed?
1) Apply now, showing that they want to attend the graduation ceremony with their own expenses. For this I just need to send the invitation letter issued by my school and transcripts.
2) Since I have a job offer right after my graduation for which I will be working under OPT status. Wait till H1B visa is approved and then apply for visa stating that I will be taking care of the expenses for their stay in United States.
Which one is better? I mean which one is easier without risks?
This question arises for me because my parents are not at all intended to come to US for graduation ceremony but they will visit US sometime in the future.
