returning from J1 type to B2 visa

[apotyperez 0]

Hello, I need advice for getting B2 visa. I want to come back to states for just a trip. I've been to America two times already, first was on 2004 for 4 months to participate the work and travel program offer in our university with J1 type. I came back in the Philippines and finished my degree. Then I worked in my home country for 2 years and I applied again on 2006 for J1 type visa for the Internship for 12 months, visa was approved again. I came back in the Philippines then decided to work in Dubai since the J1 visa has 2 years rule bond. Now the 2 years was over I would like to apply for the tourist visa, I'm 29 years and been working in Dubai for over 3 yrs now still single lady. What is the possibility for me to get the B2 visa? What is the best invitation is it from my relatives or guy friend??? Please advice.

You need to apply and be approved on your own recognizance, i.e. you need ties with the country where you reside, a substantial bank account and you need to satisfy all the IO that you are not present an immigration risk.

There is no invitation letter from a family member or individual that can help you. You must disclose any relatives and/or friends you are coming to the US to visit, but they can't help you get approved.

Good luck with your interview!

Thank you so much for your response. If there is no invitation letter needed, what would I tell them where to stay and with whom?

Tell them the correct name and address of the persons with whom you will be staying.
