Parents’ B1/B2 visa interview while my STEM OPT extension is pending
Hi everyone,
I’m looking for some advice from anyone who has been in a similar situation.
I applied stem opt extension in May 2026, and my status is pending. Not premium processing. My parents and younger sister have a B1/B2 visa interview scheduled at the U.S. Consulate in Chennai. My younger brother is not applying because he will be staying in India to take care of my grandparents.
My parents speak Gujarati and Hindi but are not comfortable speaking English. My sister speaks English.
Will they face issue as my stem opt is pending and what questions they have to face, what they have to take care?
What documents should they carry besides the standard appointment documents?
Please suggest me what to do I am not getting new dates also for next year.
Thank you in advance
