PROTECTED]: Expat List US Tourist VisaHi, 

Does anyone have recent experience or advise the can offer on the best way to 
get a Tourist Visa for my girlfriend.  She is in her late twenties, attractive, 
has a good job, and owns a flat in Moscow.  I would think it would be easy to 
see that she has ties and plans to return, but I have read many posts from 
people claiming that it can still be difficult to get a visa.  Has anyone 
recently gone through this process?  Most of the information I have found is 
quite old.  After reading the information on http://www.usembassy.ru, I still 
have some questions:

* Will she really need her own bank account?  She does not have one right now, 
but they are easy enough to open.
* Will it help or hurt if I write an invitation letter for her?
* Will it help or hurt if I go with her to the Embassy on the day of her 
interview?

Also, does anyone know how long the Visas are normally good for?  While the 
trip we have planned is only for a couple of weeks, it would be nice to be able
to bring her back to the US from time to time without having to apply for a 
second visa.

Thanks,
