爸媽都已退休，以前都是普通工薪族。我是獨(dú)生女，來每五年，轉(zhuǎn)過身分，回去過兩次，上次就是幾個(gè)月以前，為他們簽證方便特地回去一趟，也不知道有沒有用。

簽證官是美國中年婦女，據(jù)我媽說態(tài)度很好。我媽說“簽證官你好，我們?nèi)タ磁畠骸边f上我給簽證官的信，和材料清單。簽證官都看了，然后問了三個(gè)問題：

第一次去美國嗎？（第一次）
有幾個(gè)孩子？
能看一下你孩子的護(hù)照嗎？

爸爸按我的交代，把我的材料全部遞過去，簽證官找到我的護(hù)照復(fù)印件，看了兩眼，就過了。

我們都覺得再一次證實(shí)156， 157表格最重要，簽證官看過了心理基本決定大半了。另外，給簽證官的信和材料清單應(yīng)該也有用，因?yàn)槎伎戳恕Ｎ覌屨f另外一對牽過的父母的兒子寫的信很好，簽證官看了以后說你們的兒子很真誠。對這位牛gg/dd敬仰一下。。。

當(dāng)天形式不知道怎么樣，反正我爸媽前后都有被拒的父母，祝他們下次順利。。。
我爸媽區(qū)的很早，六點(diǎn)多就去了，所以基本上沒排隊(duì)，八點(diǎn)多就出來了。我覺得這很重要，簽證官剛上班狀態(tài)比較好，父母也不會因?yàn)榈忍�久而太疲勞。而且簽證官前面放的多了，到后來似乎要人為控制一點(diǎn)，就會胡亂巨人（這是我看前景的印象。。。）。另外就是，等著的時(shí)候，人多嘴雜，很煩。坐我媽旁邊的人居然對我媽說，你的護(hù)照一片空白，可能不好簽，ft。幸虧我之前跟我媽說過，他們的材料很周全，一定能過，不要聽任何人亂說影響心情。所以還是人少的時(shí)候早簽早走比較好。

祝所有的爸爸媽媽簽證順利！

邀請信

Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is ---. I came to the United States in 2002 under --- visa, and currently am working as --- in ---, a company based in ---, under my H1B visa. I would like to invite my mother, ---, and my father, ---, to the United States to visit me this summer.

I have been working hard in last five years to pursuit my degrees and work on my current position. Although I live comfortably here with my husband and nice coworkers, I can’t help missing my parents who miss me very much, too. In addition to keeping in touch with my parents via email, phone, and MSN messenger almost every day, I have gone back to China twice during the last years, and stayed with them for one month and twenty days respectively. It has been great fun to be with my parents and we all enjoyed the happy times. I wish I could go back again soon, but I am currently very busy at work, and will not have enough vacation time to visit them in the coming year. Therefore, both I and my parents agree that this is a good time for them to take a three-month tour to the United States.

My parents have never visited US before, and I really want to show them how my five years’ life and work here looks like. In addition, summer is the best season in The United States, and I plan to travel with them around to - --, --- and ---. This will be a great chance for my parents to make sure that I can take care of myself here as well as to get a taste of American life. We are really looking forward to this family reunion. I have a secure job, and both my parents and I have stable savings, which are plenty to support their travel expenses.

My parents will stay in the United States only for three months, because after the brief visit, they need to return to China to take care of my grandfather.

For your convenience, I have prepared a document list. Your consideration and kind help are greatly appreciated.

Sincerely yours,
