Invitation Letter for Family

B-2 Tourist Visa General Information

Most likely this person will be applying for a B-2 tourist visa. The U.S. Department of State provides an excellent overview on B-2 Tourist Visas.

U.S. Embassies and Consulates

Each U.S. Embassy/Consulate requests slightly different documentation for the B-2 tourist application, so please refer to the specific website where the B-2 visa application will be submitted. Most embassy websites will provide specific application instructions and list any required supplemental documents.

Invitation Letter

The University of Kansas will not write an invitation letter for your family to visit you in the United States. You should write an invitation letter to invite them to come visit you, including attending a graduation ceremony. We have created a template invitation letter below that you may use to help you write your letter.
