B2 for Spouse

[raja0576]

Hi,
I will be travelling to the US on a B1 in the next few days. My wife has a visa appointment for B2(tourism) later this month. While filling up DS-156, there is a question about "Are any of the following persons in the US" and their status. Since I will be in the US on a B1 at the time my wife is applying, what should be filled in that space?
Should we indicate that the husband is in the US and is "visiting on a B1" ? Please guide.

Thanks
Raja

Yes, she needs to indicate that you are in the US visiting on a B-1 visa. Particulary expect to explain why you two are not traveling together.

Have you considered insurance for the two of you while you are there? https://www.insubuy.com/
