Visitor visa validity with valid H1B

Hi ,

My spouse is sponsoring for my parents visitor visa, and spouse H1B is valid till January 2019 ,

Company may file extension in June 2018 , but before that my question is

Can i apply for parents visa this month ? if yes , will it effect in Parents visa approval or Validity ?

As i was informed that Sponsoring person visa validity should be at least 6 months before application.

The adjudication of a B-1 visa is based on proposed length of stay. If there are encumberances such as visa expiry, that date will be considered for certain categories but your parents are travelling as tourists and not as dependents. As your parents are visiting for tourism purposes; that stay can continue even if the host has to travel internationally. It is not a dependent visa and absolutely not dependent on your spouse’s visa dates…

Thanks for the answer , i will go ahead for processing
