New Visa (Super Visa) for parents Vs extension of Expired Visa

[Gary27]

Hi All,

My parents have visited us in the past and had visa in 2012-2013. Now, they are coming to US and likely to visit us for 2-3 months. I have following Questions:-

1. Is there any way, I can extend the old expired Visa?
2. Or, is it better to do the fresh applications for Super Visa?
3. How quickly it would be to apply any of these from US?

There is no way to extend. They must apply for a new visa. They would be better off applying from their home country than from the US. Applications submitted in the US can take several months to process - it may not be done by the end of their trip.
