Orphan

Answer

Orphan: A child who has no parents because of death, disappearance, desertion or abandonment of the parents.  A child may also be considered an orphan if the child has an unwed mother, or a single living parent who cannot care for the child and has released him/her irrevocably (permanently) for adoption and emigration.  Adoptive parents must make sure that a child meets the legal definition of an “orphan” before adopting a child from another country.

You must give truthful information and intend to keep the promises you made in the letter.

Letter of invitation from a U.S. sponsor

Letter of invitation from a U.S. sponsor will not necessarily guarantee that the holder will receive a visa. The consular officer evaluates each visa application on its own merits according to visa law and procedures. The best help that a U.S. Citizen can give to a visitor visa applicant is to make sure that applicant has all the information they need to submit a correct application and explain fully the standards for visa issuance.
