Demonstrating Strong Ties to Your Home Country

- Family Ties Highlight responsibilities or relationships with immediate family members in your home country. Evidence can include:
- Marriage certificates.
- Birth certificates of children.
- Letters from family members confirming your bond.
- Property Ownership or Financial Investments Ownership of property or investments can show financial commitments to your home country. Provide:
- Property deeds.
- Mortgage agreements.

- Membership in local organizations.
- Written Statement Include a personal statement outlining your reasons for returning home and the temporary nature of your U.S. visit.
