I need suggestion!?

i invite my parents come to visit us, but their visa application got rejected. U.S consoler said last time they stayed too long(17mos). the truth is: last time they came was during my nasty divorce, they were here to support me and they do not want to leave before my divorce final. we did every step INS required:visa extension approval, returned before visa expired, stay two years back home. my dad is already 78, how many years left for him to spend time with granddaughter? my daughter is 6 years old, after divorce, i was struggling with paying bills and giving her quality times, my little girl is so looking forward for grandparents to come, how can I explain to her that her grandparents can't come to spend summer with her? people suggest me to apply green card for my parents, but it will take 3 to 4 years in waiting period, and all these times, my parents can not come visit us,i do not have enough money or vacation time to go back. can someone give me some suggestion

Answer:
Issuance of visa at Consulate is totally discretionary. However in your case it is pretty clear that if circumstances were not explained, the discretion was not exercised improperly.

Here are your options:

1. Have your parents apply again. Document everything. Write long explanations. Put a human face to it. You might be able to help them get the visa. The problem is that since you are divorced, consulate can very well perceive that since you don't have a wife, you need baby sitter for your daughter. Secondly your parents are old. There might be a presumption -a real one too- that they have no intention to return. So, these 2 things are against you and you need to get a real grip on these.
2. Contact your local senator and ask for help. Sometimes they will do it. And sometimes consular will issue visa at the request of senator.
3. Become a citizen as soon as you can. You can then sponsor your parents. It will take them less than one year to join you, if you are already a citizen. If you are not, it is a separate issue.
Obey the law it is not just for citizens...

Put your daughter on a plane and ask your parents to pick her up from the airport. That way she can visit grandparents.

Or webcam chat is always there.
You're not going to the answer that you need on here.People are going to give you rude answers.
If you can document/prove that your parents were with you legally, had an approved extension then I would say you need to plead your case, documents in hand at the nearest homeland security office.
So, take your little girl over there to visit for the summer.
