Actually, there have been colleges who wooed foreign students wth not much more than the promise of them getting student visas and being able to stay after or disappear into the woodwork once here. Look up “visa mill”. But colleges are irrelevant in this case,

Thank you everyone for the advise for the issue at hand, couple questions to be answered (clarified). 

Bags were opened due to her bringing her computer back and not taking it out (she was young and was travelling alone)

Yes, this was a private school.

Yes, research should have been done on parents end.

We have moved on from this occasion (don't cry over spilled milk scenario)

This visit (current visa application) is legitimately to visit an ailing family member for a weekend. 

We were just asking for advise, not questions to re-live a harrowing experience.

Again, thanks all that gave true advise.

The plot thickens further. Of course they will have the sibling’s name on file for the immigrant petition too.

Which makes one wonder what the referred to “truthful” answer on the DS160 is. 

 

Yet again, half the story is told, if everything had been upfront it would have been easier to reach the right conclusion....

There is a petition in for her. Which has to obviously be stated in the DS160. No one is trying to break the law here.

Well, it’s confusing because earlier you said there was no immigrant intent. Now you say there is.

 

also your earlier thread stated public school and now you state private. And yes, it matters if public money was used.

 

Finally, you might have moved on from the experience, but it’s still in USCIS records. They will not have “moved on”. No one here has any interest in making you relive a bad experience, but it’s annoying to waste time on stuff when being properly truthful from the first post could have led to an accurate assessment of the facts 3 pages ago.

  If the visit is only for a week ,  why not make a family trip to Canada or somewhere else ?

Sounds like they do (or did 4-odd yrs back)

 

That thread says public school?

I personally wouldn't hold something like this against a visa applicant. It was their parent's' decision and a lot of time has passed. 

 

Not necessarily a deal killer if someone has a lot of LPR/AmCit family. Maybe they've all followed the law and immigration process correctly. If the applicant is now a successful adult with opportunities to immigrate lawfully I would probably give them a visa.

Wonder who was paying for the school? US taxpayers?

 

Considering prior visa abuse, chances are ZERO.

 

Shouldn't "they" have a ban?

How did sibling get to be a citizen?  Marriage? Birth tourism? Employment?

Why does it matter?
