Destroyed Visa and passport B2
I have plans to Travel to the USA shortly on my B2 visa, however I have just had a domestic fire that destroyed my home and with it my passport with the B2 visa inside. The visa was only issued 2 months ago, and was valid for 10 years. I can get a new passport quite quickly, however I will need the visa inside also or I'll have to cancel all my plans and won't be able to re-plan them for nearly 12 months.
I no longer have any remnants of the passport, it was completely destroyed, can the Embassy reissue my visa into the new passport or will I need to start the application process from the start for a brand new visa? (This will take too long).
yours,
Abolly

Applying B1/B2 Visa from Singapore
Hi,
I plan to travel to US in March for tourism purposes (mainly to go for a music festival and travel to other cities for sight seeing).
I will be applying from Singapore as I am a permanent resident here (have been staying for more than 15 years here) but I am a Pakistani citizen. I currently work in Singapore in a big MNC, I'm 25 years old, single, currently living with my whole family (parents and siblings).
I do not have any relatives or friends in US but I am traveling with my friends who are all Singaporean and hence under Visa Waiver Program. I am also well travelled (currently have Australian, Japanese and Malaysian visas).
May I know what are my chances of approval to the get the US Visa? I understand I need to show strong ties back home. Financially, it shouldn't be a problem as I have more than $50,000 in my account. Other than the fact that I live with my family and currently work here, how do I show strong ties to Singapore?

A good idea to apply for brother's Visa along with parents?
Hey,
Wanted to poll the group to see if it is considered advisable to apply for a b2 visa for my brother ( along with my parents) or separately. He is currently a bachelor, in 3rd year of engineering college ( which I am hoping should serve as his "ties to the country").
Another question is, assume both parents and my self have a decent bank balance ( over 10k USD), will you recommend self sponsoring over sponsorship by me ( living in the US on an L1B). Or they equal in terms of probablity for getting accepted. Given all other constraints the same ( parents working, have property, bank balances etc)
Thanks for your replies in advance and for being an awesome bunch!
Cheers!

Visitors visa B2 Approved
Hello everyone,
First of all I would like to thank 'immmihelp' website.
Me and my colleague/friend applied together for the US visitor visa (B2) for tourism purpose. The date for OFC was on 24th November and the interview was on 25th November, at US consulate General Mumbai.
Me and my friend, both are single. My friend was sponsored by his cousin in US, while I was sponsoring myself. Though me and my colleague applied together, we both were sent to different window because we are not relatives and not in blood relations.
The visa officer was a lady and asked me many questions. The interview duration was about 2-3 minutes. The discussion done was as mentioned below:
Me : Good morning madam.
VO : Good morning, can you show me your passport please?
Me : (with smile) sure madam.
VO : What is the purpose of your visit sir?
Me : For tourism purpose.
VO: What do you do?
Me: I am an Assistant Professor in degree engineering college.
VO : What is your qualification?
Me : M.Tech in Mechanical Engineering.
VO : pardon me..
Me : (I repeated the answer)
VO : In which year you completed your studies?
Me : (I replied accordingly).
VO : Do you have any relatives or friends in US?
Me : I don't have any relatives but I have a friend over there.
VO : What is your friend is doing?
Me: He is working in XYZ company.
VO : He is working as?
Me : As a software engineer.
VO : Do you have brothers or sisters?
Me : I have a younger sister, she is married now.
VO : Is your sister completing her graduation now? ( Totally irrelevant or Tricky question)
Me : No, she is working as an architect.
VO : What are your parents doing?
Me : (I replied accordingly).
VO : (With smile) "Congratulations...! Your visa has been approved. You can collect your passport from the address given by you."
Me: (With smile) Thank you madam.
-----------------------------------------------------------
My colleague was at another window. He was asked regarding the purpose of visit, occupation, education and the sponsor details, etc.
His visa is approved, too.
-----------------------------------------------------------
The questions like Marital status, annual income, work experience, duration of stay, etc were not asked to any of us. We received our passports after 3 days. We both received 10 years visa.
They didn't ask to produce any document. But for safer side keep all relevant documents with you. In case they ask for any proof, you must have it to show them.
Please fill the correct and precise details in DS 160 form.
Be confident and positive. And please DO NOT LIE.
All the best to all applicants.
Thank you.

b2 visa for parents
Hi, My parents have appointment on dec 29th.
1)when we fill the ds-160 form we put my mothers name as dependent on my father. but appointment confirmation letter has only my fathers name and passport number. no details about my mother like no passport number, name. but number of applicants is showing 2 . MRV fees payments are under both names with different ds-160 confirmation numbers. do we need to print same appointment confirmation letter for my mother too or one appointment letter is fine for both of them?
2) my father wear dhothi only. is there any dress code?
thank you so much for helping.

Attending for a B2 visa
Hi,
I am on H1B in USA and married with kids. I am inviting my parents who are in sixties to USA. My father was a retired employee from government service. When we applied for passport because of some name issues in my father certificates we did not mention that my father was employed before. We mentioned that my father was not educated.
I dont see anysuch thing mentioned in passport about my father's education. When I fill DS-160 should I maintain the same thing or should I give the actual details. I would like to give the correct details in DS-160 so that they feel comfortable when they talk to the visa officer. But my concern is if there is anything in passport that conflicts the information with DS-160 and creates problem for issuing visa.Can somebody suggest me something.
Thanks
