How can I help my Thai girlfriend apply for a tourist visa to visit the US?

Jon ********

Unless your GF is a homeowner or has a business in Thailand there is no way other then getting a fiance Visa. And you will need at least $75,000 in cash (in the bank...could be more these days) and you must marry must her in 90 days or....forget it.....The immigrtation officers will know in 1 minute what your GF is about.
