Visit visa for mother

Waiting for expert opinion.

if you are self-employed, show your business registration as well as any evidence of your existing business (tax returns, information concerning number of employees, balance sheets, income statements, bank statements showing transactions, etc.);

Also make sure to have your invitation letter notarized. it is not a mandatory thing to do, however, having notarized stamp may only eliminate chances of refusal

hey vic_guys3, i had my mother come visit me twice so far and every time i had to provide an invitation letter supported by any documents that would aid her with her application.
she never send a copy of her flight tickets because we were first waiting for visa to be approved. I would submit a notarized letter of invitation and also paystabs or bank draft showing you have enough money to support her stay.  We also noted any places that she would be visiting and proof of her job and family ties.
