Dear balbahadur, Send the invitation letter from your school; if you have scholarship and working at the university, also send the original copy from your school; your own letter of invitation; the statement that you are in good standing in school; your transcripts; property evaluation back home; if your parents do have some money in the bank account, please prepare the statement from the bank too; your parents' social tie to Nepal so that the consulates are confirmed that your parents will return to nepal; I hope this helps!

 recently, in january . .. . . though my mum didnt came here for my graduation but she applied just to visit me. She got the visa  . . and she just showed 12 lakh . and  for graduation invitation should have been more easy than as my mum did just to visit .. ..and as a student  i didnt show any bank balance .. .

Hi guys, I have two questions regarding inviting relatives for my graduation. 1.  I have graduate assistantship, so I have regular income to show. Regarding bank balance, somebody told me that $2000 (per person) is enough to invite parents for graduation. Is bank balance of $4000 enough for my parents' visa application? 2. How many people can I invite? I'm planning to invite my cousin along with my parents. I appreciate your suggestions. Sparty

 Like 2 years back my parents came to visit me (not for graduation), i don't think they had to show any financial documents!!
