Hi,
Sorry for B2 visa question.
I want to invite my parents come to US. They are going to apply B2 Visa at Beijing, China. They visted us in America between 2002/1-2003/1 (12 months with valid extension). Right now, I am drafting an invitation letter. The main point is to invite them to be us for a few months. I have several questions for the invitation letter concerning the possibility of visa application approval:

1. I bought a new house and will move into it next month. If I mention it in the letter (say I have a new house, I want my parent to see), is it good or bad?
2. My son is in China with them, in the letter, can I say I want them to bring my son back to US or don't mention my son?
3. We will have another new baby very soon, If I mention it (say I will have a new baby, I want them to see), is it good or bad?

Any B2 Visa application expeirence will be welcome.
Thanks.

Jhon
 
A small clarification ..

What did you mention in invitation letter when you invited your parents in 2002 ?

Just for sugesstion:
1) Mention that you have bought a new house and as per tradition, your parents want to join you so that they can celebrate the new house bying celebration or whatever.
2) You can mention that your parents want to be here with you & your wife in order to support (immotional & Physical support) their Daughter-In-Law during the birth of child. Also, they want to organize/attend some traditional celebration on the occasion of new addition to the family and it is fortunate to have grandparents blessings at the time of birth as per tradition etc. Do not mention that they will take care of you wife after birth (US consulate may raise question that why don't you take Nanny's help, nannies are available in US).
3) Rest, about bringing your son to US, is not a good idea for visitors VISA.

These are my suggestions, please act upon your best sense.

Good luck.
 
Also you can mention that they'll spend money here( tourism , shopping etc) and basically have a good time.
Your parents should be ready to answer as to why they had to extend their stay here the last time.
