Asked on Jul 23rd, 2013 on Immigration - California
More details to this question:
I am graduating in August since there is no commencement ceremony in summer. I have to take the graduation walk in December 2013 convocation ceremony. My optional practical training is about to start and I am joining a job as a consultant soon. I also have plans to marry my boyfriend in December 2013 or January 2014. We will have a registered wedding followed by a temple ceremony. He is a student too and is graduating in December 2013. I want to invite my parents. They have $25000 as liquid as bank balance and will be funding their trip themselves.
2 ANSWERS
They will just need to apply for the visitor's visas and provide as much documentation as possible to show that they have no immigrant intent, what the purpose of the trip would be and that they fully intend to return to their home country after the brief visit to the US. Please let me know if you have any additional questions or how I can be of further assistance to you in this matter.

They should submit your birth certificate to the consulate to establish the parent-child relationship. They should also submit a copy of your student visa, a copy of your wedding invitation, and other documents to prove their intent to return home after their authorized stay such as, but not limited to, property titles, employment letters, business licenses, etc.
