January 26, 200620 yr My sister is going to attend a meeting in US, she has an invitation letter from her company in US saying the meeting period is between Mar 6-10. She wants to stay a few more days (4-5 days) there after the meeting for travelling. In US embassy website mentions that "Your purpose of travel must be purely business or pleasure or you are not eligible to travel with a Visitor Visa" What does that suppose to mean? Does it mean if we apply for a Business visa type then we can stay longer for travelling?? A few questions here: 1. In DS156 form requires us to fill up how long we intend to stay in U.S. and for what purpose - how should it be written? 1 week business 1 week tourist? Or 2 weeks business? 2. If we say 2 weeks, will they question why you are going to stay 2 weeks while the meeting is just for one week only?? Well, I am sure there must be many people doing this before so .. pleasssse help to advise me so I can tell my sister!! bambi
