My husband is a US citisen and Iam still greencard pending.We'd like to invite my mom from Russia
What process is involved in getting a visa to visit the United States from Russia and how long does it take and what's the cost?
Thanks in advance,
Yuliya

I believe you have to wait until your AOS is done, but I'm not 100% on that. Talk to AKDiver. He had his in-laws visit recently, so he could probably help you best.

Cost is $100 plus personal destination charges to the consulate or embassy for the interview and Pony Express visa delivery charges. Find your nearest consulate or embassy and work from there.

Her status is irrelevant as each B visitor applicant must prove his or her own individual ties to Russia and reason for going.
