visitor visa for my father
Hi,

I have been referring to this site for guidance ever since I have been sponsoring my father's visa for 2 unsuccessful attempts.

My father used to work for a private company for over 18 years and retired. He did not get any pension. Mother is no more. I have been in the US for over 7 years now and I wanted to bring my father to the US so that he can spend some time with us.

He tried once in Mumbai and once in Chennai, both times, he was not given any reason. The second attempt he tried in Kannada without luck. My colleagues suggested me to approach our senator here in the US and send a letter to the consulate in Mumbai. I did that but in the second attempt, I asked my father to tell the VO that senator of Virginia would have sent a recommendation letter in support of my visa. As soon as he showed that, the VO handed him the refusal sheet.

In the meantime, my father's cousin suggested him to meet a visa consultant whom she approached for her visa when she too had a refusal. No harm to give it a try the third time so contacted them and explained them my father's experience. They spoke to my father as well and were of the opinion that there could be some communication problem while answering questions.

They coached him on that and ola! 3rd try success! I guess at times it is better to leave it to experts instead of complicating the situation. If anybody is interested in contacting them, they are Visa Vikings +91-99499-38272 or +91-88852-42557. All the best to everyone who is in a predicament like I was.
