My husband (indonesian) and I (irish) plan to travel to the US for 16 days. I am travelling for work as I have to attend training there, and my husband is accompanying me, so basically for Tourism purposes. As an Indonesian citizen he'll have to apply for a Tourist visa with the US Embasssy. He's arranged an appointment with the Dublin US Embassy for Weds AM. Has anyone attended one of these before? Any tips on what's asked?
It seems the main concern seems to be that is that he will not exit the country and will remain in the US, so the onus is on us to prove that he has "ties in his country of residence". The documentation I've accumulated for the application so far are:
- Details of my work (payslips, contract)
Details of his work (letter of job offer)
Rental Agreement & Utilities
Joint and individual Bank statements
Marriage Certificate
Return Flight Booking for both of us
Hotel Bookings in my name
