Requirement bringing my Mother-in-law to the US

[carlos.avila 0]

My wife and I were legally married at City Hall on December 24, 2024. We are planning to hold our traditional wedding ceremony in Medan, Indonesia, this coming June. As the date approaches, my mother-in-law has an upcoming interview for a tourist visa at the U.S. Embassy. This will be her third attempt, as she was previously denied twice last year.

Now that I am legally married to her daughter, I wanted to ask if there are any specific requirements or additional supporting documents that could help strengthen her case and increase her chances of obtaining a visa. Are there particular types of evidence that are recommended in these situations?

It’s all about her ties to her home country. Job, etc. So whatever she can show to evidence that, but bear in mind she may not get the chance to present any evidence at interview. 
 

If you and/or your wife are USC’s and will be living in the US (you’ve not said so no idea, but assume so?) you’re a negative factor, it means she’s even less likely to be granted a visa.
