Hi,

I want my parents to visit me for my Master's graduation ceremony in December. My parents are senior citizens above 65 and I am on F1 visa. Do you think they can get a 10 yrs multiple entry visa? I can show that I can support them since I am working as an intern.
Also, can they submit the visa application by drop box. It'll be too tough for them to stand up in the queues. Do the delhi consulate have any provision for senior citizens?

Please help me in this.
Thanks,

Hi

The first thing that you really need to do is get a visa appointment for your parents online through www.ttsvisas.com. drop box facility is available only for persons above 79 years. You should not choose to sponsor them coz you are dependent your self on your parents or the I presume the banks for your course completion, they need to sponsor their trips. The available dates for appointment in Delhi are only in the month of early Jan 2005, i think you need to act quick.

Parents need not stand in long queues now, those times are all gone, they only need to arrive 15 min prior to the interview time.

Not legal advice!

Thanks for the information.
The thing is I am not on any bank loan. I came here on a paid project, which is why I've been able to support myself completely on my own.
I want to know if I can help them in any way get a 10 year multiple entry visa. Should I submit some letter or some form along with the visa application?

Thanks,
