Hi,
We live in USA and have green cards. Recently, our sister-in-laws (my brother's wife and my wife's brother's wife) applied for visitor VISA and it was denied. We simply want them to visit USA and we purchased airline tickets for their 3 months visit. They are coming alone (not with their family) as their husbands do not like to travel and kids have to be in school. We are responsible for their trip financially and we prepared all the documents based on recommendation here (Invitation letter, airline tickets, i-134, my employment letter, bank documents, pay stubs etc.). At the interview, consular asked simple questions like who is inviting you, why do you want to go to USA, and why your family is not going with you. They answered everything properly but VISA was denied and letter says their intention does not match the type of VISA they have applied for meaning not enough strong case for their return after trip. Consular did not see any of the supporting documents that we had sent. Not sure how we can strengthen their case? I wanted them to try at least one more time before giving up. They both are home makers, have family in INDIA (husbands and kids). Any suggestions please? Thanks in advance.
There is one thing I'd like to add: when I filled DS-160 I requested for 2 months but the flight tickets were for 3. Could this be in issue? of course I plan to make everything consistent next time.
