Please, I Need Help With US Visa Application [case Study] by CreativeWeb(m): 4:11pm On Jun 05, 2017
Please, I need your help about US Visa Application.

My company is sending me to US for a business. I have a letter from my company indicating they are sending me. I have a letter of invitation from our business partner. I want to apply for a B1 Visa. I will be staying 3 months.

Here's my challenge...

I want to travel with my wife. While filling the DS-160 form,
1. Should I indicate that she will be accompanying me?

If yes,

2. Will she also fill a separate DS-160 form and book interview?

3. What kind of Visa will she apply for? B2?

***
4. Since my company is sponsoring me, will I need a copy of the company's bank account statement to convince the consular that my travel expenses will be taken care of while in the US?

5. How long does Visa processing take? I will be attending a conference which will start on 13th July. I want to apply for visa on Thursday 8th June. Possible date of interview is showing 23rd June. Can we get the visa before 13th July?

Thank you so much.

Don't apply with your wife since it's an official trip. When you return from the trip you can apply with your wife on a personal trip. This answers your questions 1 - 3
4. Go with your company statement of account (though they hardly ask to see it)
5. This will be determined by the traffic (but the earlier the better)

Actually, she's part of the conference.

Let me make it clearer, I'm a Pastor. My church is sending us to attend Synod conference and Women's Conference of a sister church in the US.

I will attend the Synod while see attends the Women's Conference. Both conferences run concurrently.

I will need a B1 Visa. She will need a B2 Visa.

My question...

How do I link the two DS-160 application forms together so that we attend interview together?

Thanks.

It's church not a company or organization?

I believe you can both select b1/b2 visa
Anyhow, you can link it on the second website where you book your appointment. You would be asked if you are travelling with someone then you add her details

When it's time to entree transaction reference you will enter both of your payment receipt number.

From there you book your appointment
Yes she needs to fill her own ds160 form
