Mike Midvet Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I would like to sponsor a Thai national is getting a tourist visa to the USA. I am willing to assume financial responsibility and ensure she returns to Thailand prior to the visa expiration. In addition to the affidavit forms, would it help her case with immigration if I were to purchase a security bond on her behalf - if so, where can I purchase such a bond? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaLa Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I don't know if such a financial 'instrument' exists. Should suffice if 1 or more of the following You have a long term association in Thailand . House / business etc ..ie roots here She has property or land here She has a salaried job here with a recognisable company She has children here. Good luck, sorry I can't be of more help.

TimBKK Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I think there is little to no chance that it would impact the final decision, to be frank. I would be surprised if the consular officer gave it more than a passing glance, if that, on the day of the visa interview. But, if you are willing to go through the time and expense of acquiring such a bond (presuming it is even possible), I don’t see how it would negatively impact the visa application. So, can’t hurt but won’t help. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkk6060 Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 (edited) Meaningless. Do what you want, but getting a Thai female a tourist Visa to the U.S. is 99.9 % failure. This is on recent applications to the U.S., not 10 years ago. Edited March 25, 2022 by bkk6060 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GinBoy2 Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 I agree with several of the previous comments. The only form I know of is the I-134, affidavit of support, and that only applies to those applying for immigrant visas. I've never heard of anything similar for tourist visas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScience Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Sorry, no bar girl cum online infatuation sponsorships for you to get laid. No such thing and not required for B visa. Anything else like ability to work will have all together different criteria. Furthermore, you really don't want to do this. She owes nothing to you and could easily do a runner.

1FinickyOne Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 (edited) never heard of that being done... but the basic answer from the govt will be that you cannot be sure what another person might do... you cannot guarantee what she might do - - a bond is an interesting proposition but what would be the costs involved in tracking her down and deporting her? good luck.

Will B Good Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 In my experience (UK) immigration only have one question in mind........what will ensure that she has to (or will want to) return to Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question is about the US though not the UK. There is certainly no such thing for the UK, in fact such an offer is specifically excluded in the guidance to UKVI decision makers, I suspect the same applies for US applicants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
