My parents had applied for a visitors visa in August 2003 and were given a 6 months visa that was valid till Feb 2004. However they did not travel to the US in that period since they decided against travelling in the winter. They will be applying again in May 2004 by the drop box since both are 60+.
1) Is applying a second time a drawback especially within a couple of months of expiry of the old visa? Do they have to give a reason for not having used the earlier visa (like in a letter addressed to the consulate) ?
2) On Form I-134 : Item #9 states : "Have you previously submitted affidavit(s) of support for the following person(s). If none state 'None'."
DO I SAY 'None' OR DO I MENTION HERE THAT I HAD PREVIOUSLY FILLED AN AFFIDAVIT OF SUPPORT FOR MY PARENTS LAST AUGUST ALTHOUGH THEY DID NOT TRAVEL TO THE US ?
Thanks
