tourist visa for friend in Romania to USA

[Craig Weis 0]

I'm just now beginning to search what is required for a 20 day visit to the USA for a friend of mine living in Videle, Romania. I'd like to secure a 30 day Tourist Visa for a 20 day stay.

Where do I start?

Your friend has to apply for Tourist Visa

And also, if you were wondering - you cannot "sponsor" your friend or send an invitation asking on behalf of them if the friend can visit or anything else. This friend will be granted or denied a visa based on his/her own ties to Romania and proof they will go back after their visa.

You will find you have nothing to do with the application other than advising them. The time allowed is set at the POE. B 2 always hinges on proving strong ties to country. This is what the person must understand & work on.
