Are U.S. tourist visas the same as family visit visas?

Tourist visa and relative visit visa are two different types of visas. One is for having relatives or friends in the United States. You need to issue relevant certificates (such as invitation letters) and have financial guarantees from relatives in the United States. When applying for a family visit visa, the period of stay in the United States is generally 6-12 months depending on age. The tourist visa does not require any proof from the United States. Generally, the person traveling can apply for a US tourist visa if he provides sufficient financial guarantee and has a stable job. The China-U.S. Tourism Year started in 2015, so U.S. tourist visas are now valid for 10 years and are easier to apply for. No intermediary is needed, just fill in your personal information truthfully, tell the truth during the interview and have certain financial resources to get a visa.
