My parents went to the US Consulate in Beijing to apply the B2 visa to visit me, but they both got denied. The main reason, we believe, is that I came to US in 93 and never got a chance to go back to see them in the past 9 years.
I came as a student, after getting my graduate degrees, I started to work till now. I am in H1B status which will expire 11/03 (6 full years). I filed my I-485 last month, therefore, I will be in adjustment of status stage soon (I hope).
The question is, should my parents wait to apply again after I get my greencard? When they got denied at the consulate, they did show their strong tie with the home country, e.g. residential property document, bank accounts, employment, etc. I just don't know what else can they present to show their intention to return after the visit. Maybe they can try to apply separately? I already realize that I might have been staying in US for too long without paying a single visit to my home.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
