Hi Consular Officer, I want my sister and her family to visit me in US. My sister visa has been refused a total of 5 times, 3 times for F1 application in 2005 and 2 times for tourist visa(2007 and 2009)on ground of 214(b). Last time when i was graduating i invited my mom and sister, they gave my mom the visa but refused my sister. Here are the facts, my sister is not working anymore after having a baby and her husband has a government job which pays okay but not great. They have a lease for their apartment, has been living there for few years, my sister partly owns a family house which is 60yrs old. their whole life is there but no sure how to convience the consular that she only wants to visit me for a short duration.
My brother-in-law and my niece have never applied for any visa. Should I ask them to go together or separately? I don't want them to get refusal because of my sisters refusal history.
Now, i am a US citizen and my sister is eligible for immigrant visa but I have not applied for her, is this enough reason to show that she is not interested anymore to come here? Please advise what kind of documents will be helpful to show ties and not intend to immigrate? All my family is back home just me here. I can sponsor them for their visit
