Hi everyone, I’m looking for advice on my sister’s B2 visa situation. She has been rejected twice now, with the most recent denial in February 2026. I am getting married in the US this July, and it’s very important to me that she is there. My parents' visas have already been approved. Sister’s Profile: Employment: Working full-time for the past 2 years in India. Finances: Has steady income, filed Income Tax Returns (ITR), and holds assets in India. Last Interview: The officer only asked about her travel plans, and then issued a rejection. The Dilemma: We aren't sure if the issue lies in the DS-160 or how she answered the questions. Since the last rejection was only a month ago, we are worried about "Section 214(b)" (presumed immigrant intent). My Questions: Since she was just rejected in Feb, is applying again for a July wedding too soon? How should we change the approach in the DS-160 or the interview to emphasize her "strong ties" (job, assets, ITR) more effectively? Does the fact that my parents are already approved help or hurt her case? Is there any specific way to "prove" the necessity of her being at the wedding without sounding like she intends to stay? Any insights from those who have faced similar "sibling of a citizen/GC holder" rejections would be greatly appreciated.
