  • How risky is to apply for visitor visa for my parents, brother & Sis at the same time

    I am on H1-B for past 2 yrs and my wife is also on H1-B. Both are working in the same city. I would likt to bring my parents brother and sister for 2 months during the summer of 2007. My question is:

    1- How risky is to apply for visitor visa for all of them at the same time?

    2- Does it make same sense to bring my parents alone and my brother sister when my parents are back in India?

    3- My brother is working in delhi and my sister has just finished her studies. My dad is retired and mom is a home maker.

    4- I am sponsoring their whole trip and would furnish affidavit of support.

    Am I risking too much here to bring them at the same time. Any suggestions would be welcome. I have searched this forum and couldnt find any similar queries related to my situation. I hope Mr. Yogi can shed some light on it.

    Much appreciated.

    No, you should not do that.
    The most important issue that officer has in mind is;
    ARE THEY GOING TO COME BACK?
    If all of them apply, the officers are likely to think all of you may not come back because you are leaving no family ties behind.
    Family ties are a very important issue for a visitor visa.
    An example of which is widows with no children in India
    finding it impossible to get a visa.

    I suggest you can bring your parents first, leaving your siblings behind.
