Visit Visa from the Philippines

Hello, I need help on what I should do to convince the VO that my parents will not overstay in the US. My parents (ages 64 and 59) and my sister (age 32) applied for a B1/B2 visa last February and was refused under 214b not enough ties at home country etc. I am a citizen of Canada and I want to meet my parents in the US this coming June (we are going to attend the graduation of my cousin). My mother has 2 siblings in the US who are both citizens now.

I am planning to have my parents apply again without my sister. Do you think that would help?

There is nothing you can do, maybe visit Canada.

Thank you.

 

Yes. They will apply for Canada visit visa too. We just want them to visit both US and Canada in one go.

Is my sister is not enough tie to the home country?

No

Will they have better chances if they got Canada visit visa?

 

Do they have good travel histories? If not, going to Canada and returning without overstaying would be a good sign but probably not enough to make a huge difference.

Who knows, Nobody here is a CO at the US Embassy in Manila

 

I have not seen past travel history as being a game changer in getting a tourist visa from Philippines

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

Do some research,  Is it possible to enter the USA on a visitor visa issued from Canada?

 

I think if you come to the USA on a visitor visa from Philippines, you can use that tourist visa to enter Mexico.

Nope.  Your sister is an adult.  Even if she were still a child, Filipinos have been known to leave children behind to stay and work illegally in the US.

Maybe if the Canadian visa has already been used, with no overstay.

 

If there are no significant changes to your parents' circumstances, it's likely they'll be denied again.  But no one here can tell you for sure.  The only way to find out is for your parents to apply.

 

I wish you and your family well and I hope you let us know it goes.

Thank you for the well wishes. They will, for sure, try again. I am just trying to find out from here if there are other things that can positively affect their application.

Do they want to reside long term in Canada? If so, why don’t you sponsor them since you are a CS.
