Hi everyone good day to all. Just wanted to know how long would my in-laws would be allowed to visit me and the wife on their first visit so I can book plane tickets for them. Thanks

That is up to the CO at the time of entry into the USA but usually about 3 months.

There's no way to know for sure...the duration of status is determined at POE. Max 6 months. Tickets should generally be booked for how long they expect to stay.

Depends on the visa they have. I wouldn't buy any travel tickets till you know for sure that they have a visa and what the visa will allow as a length of stay. Knowledge is power.

My wife Uncle who lives in Philippines but is US citizen, His son got accepted into the Navy.  The family applied for tourist visa and all were approved.  All 6 of them, 4 were older and live in Philippines, the two other were in late 20's and work in Singapore.  They aunt stayed for 4 months while the the rest spent 3 weeks here.   I thought they made them good for 6 months, but I have heard of people getting multiply enter ones as well.

 

Here is the funny part, the uncle wrote a letter saying he would sponsor them, and he swears that is why they were all approved and also he is retired Navy was the other part.  

 

I wanted to call Bullchit on him, but he is convinced so I kept my mouth shut.

Just when you think you have TDS eradicate,  a new case shows up.
