Thanks in advance for taking time to answer my question. My parents B2 Visa expired about 10 months back. I had the renewal appointment in July of last year that was cancelled (by the US embassy) and have been unable to get new date for renewal on the website. I am a US citizen and wanted to get my parents to US for visit and wanted to know what are my options for getting the Visa renewed or sponsoring of Green Card.

thanks again, Yogesh
