Tourist visa questions for one application but individuals in different countries

[carvet]

Hi! My parents and I are Indian passport holders. I’m applying for tourist visa, however, I live in Chicago, USA and my parents live in India. I’m planning to apply for us as a group. Can I submit my biometrics and passport from USA and them from India within the same application?

Are your parents in the US now and will be during processing? If not separate applications. And if over 22, you would be applying separately anyways as you are not a dependant.

I recommend applying for your parents after the come to the US. Visa from India is taking 80+ days now.
I applied from different profile (me from US one profile, parents from India together one profile). No specific reason.
