Parents visiting USA - Self-sponsorship vs Funded?
Hi,
My mother intends to visit US to see my 'expecting-sister' & brother-in-law. I am thinking of getting visa for both my parents at once (while only my mom will visit US as of now)
Details:
- My sister is a home maker, while my brother-in-law works for a US firm
- My mother (aged 62) is a home maker too, while my father works as a private lawyer (hence, no salary proof, no IT returns etc.)
- Assets in their name: We have a house in my hometown in my mother's name, land in my father & uncle's name, 5-6 lacs of bank balance, plus some jewellery
- Me: I am their son, working in India, earning very well (30+ lacs per annum). My wife is working too & we just had a kid - so, family dependency in India for them
Now, I have following questions:
- Can I sponsor their trip, i.e. their son in India?
- If not, then what would be better - self-sponsorship or sponsorship by brother-in-law? Which would have better chances of getting the VISA?
