US visa for parents from CANADA

[vishang]

Hi, my parents get their canada TRV approved from India. On their visit we are planning to visit USA for a week.

So is it possible to apply for USA visitor visa from canada when they come here. what are the chances to get the visa approved.

Issue is if they don't get the visa from here we have to cancel our trip as well.

Does anyone fall in this sort of scenario.

thank you for your help.

From the State Department's website:

https://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/visit/visitor.html

You must schedule an appointment for your visa interview, generally, at the U.S. Embassy or Consulate in the country where you live. You may schedule your interview at any U.S. Embassy or Consulate, but be aware that it may be difficult to qualify for a visa outside of your place of permanent residence.

From a third-party website:

http://www.workpermit.com/us/investor_b1_b2.htm

US visitor visas should generally be applied for in a country of which the candidate is a Citizen or permanent resident. Applications made in other countries often run a high risk of being turned down. The most common reason for refusal of B1/B2 visas is the applicant showing insufficient evidence of social, family or economic ties to his/her country of residence that would ensure that s/he would return there following the visit to the USA.


So, it's better to apply at a US consulate or embassy in India. Your parents can mention the Canada trip in the DS-160 form if it's possible or during the interview.
