Do I need to show my bank balance to bring my parents to visit USA

If you are bringing your parents to visit the United States, you are not required to show your bank balance to them. However, you may be asked to provide proof of financial support during the visa application process.

If you are asked to provide proof of financial support during the US visa application process, you will need to submit documentation that shows you have the financial means to support yourself while in the United States. This can include bank statements, pay stubs, tax returns, and other financial documents.

In addition to the standard application requirements, when applying for a US visa for parents, you will also need to provide:

  • Proof of relationship to the applicant, such as a birth certificate or adoption papers
  • A copy of the applicant’s passport
  • A completed visa application form
  • A recent photograph of the applicant
  • Proof of financial support, such as bank statements or a letter from the sponsor
  • Proof of travel plans, such as airline tickets or a hotel reservation
  • Any other documents required by the specific visa category

Why do they ask for financial proof?

There are a few reasons why officers may ask for financial proof when applying for a US visa.

One reason is to show that the applicant has the means to support themselves during their stay in the US.

Another reason may be to prove that the applicant is not likely to become a public charge, meaning they are not likely to rely on public assistance during their stay.

As a general guideline, you should aim to show a bank balance that is sufficient to cover your estimated expenses for the duration of your stay in the United States.

This includes things like airfare, accommodation, food, transportation, and any other incidentals that you may incur.

If you have a solid financial plan in place, it will bolster your case for obtaining a visa.
