Hello!
I am planning to invite my family ( father, mother and sister) for the first time to US. Does anyone have any experience regarding inviting the whole family?

My sister is single and will be just completing her studies this may. Does anybody have any suggestions about what kind of ties I can provide to the consulate letting them know that my sister will return back to India.

Thanks

It is difficult to get for sister. For parents, read www.immihelp.com/visas/visitor (http://www.immihelp.com/visas/visitor)

Thanks immihelp.

I will be sending invitation letter and other documents for all 3 of them ( father, mother & sis) together. Will including my sis also, spoil the chances for my parents?

Thanks Again

I have a question on a related issue. I have sponsored my parents to visit US, three times. My wife's parents have never been here. Is it better if I sponsor my wife's parents because of past history(my parents coming to US 3 times and returning back) OR if she sponsors them herself. Both of us are working. Thanks.

I don't think it matters. Your parents returned to India within specified time is irrelevant what your wife's parents would do.
