What are the procedures and procedures for parents to apply for a visa when their daughter works in the United States?

Visa B 1 is issued to applicants who go to the United States for short-term business activities, including signing contracts through negotiation, attending exhibitions or conferences, short-term training or negotiating business with suppliers or customers. B2 visas are issued to applicants who travel to the United States, including sightseeing, visiting relatives and friends and medical treatment. Holders of B 1 and B2 visas cannot work in the United States.

Applicants for B 1 and B2 visas must be able to prove that (1) their intention is only to enter the United States temporarily; (2) Its purpose is only tourism and/or short-term business activities; (3) The applicant is unwilling to give up his property in China.

According to American immigration law, the applicant is obliged to prove to the visa officer that he meets the requirements for obtaining a B 1/B2 visa. Therefore, the applicant can decide the most powerful supporting information and materials to support his visa application. I have a specific and reasonable plan, proof of a fixed job, meaningful business activities or assets during my stay in the United States, and I have strong family and social binding in China, so I can more strongly support the application for a B 1/B2 visa.
