Bringing Parents here

[bikash007]

Hi Guys,

I have another question.

When I return I would like to bring my parents along.
Should I get them here on a dependent visa or can I
apply greencard for them as dependents during the
time of the interview?

Thanks,
Bikash.

Your parents can only come on visitor's visa ( B2). You cannot apply greencard for them as they are not considered as your dependents. Only spouse and children are considered dependents.

Moreover, your parents can only come as temporary visitors for a maximum of 6 months.
