Do we get  new B2 visa for parents  which is valid for 10 years if their passport expires in 1.5 years?

"No. If your visa is still valid you can travel to the United States with your two passports, as long as the visa is valid, not damaged, and is the appropriate type of visa required for your principal purpose of travel. (Example: tourist visa, when your principal purpose of travel is tourism). Both passports (the valid and the expired one with the visa) should be from the same country. When you arrive at the U.S. port-of-entry (POE, generally an airport or land border) the Customs and Border Protection Immigration Officer will check your visa in the old passport and if s/he decides to admit you into the United States they will stamp your new passport with an admission stamp along with the annotation "VIOPP" (visa in other passport). Do not try to remove the visa from your old passport and stick it into the new valid passport. If you do so, your visa will no longer be valid."

Your parents can travel with their passport if the validity is 1.5 years. However, if their passport validity is about to expire within 6 months, then they must renew their passport & take old expired passport with valid visa with the newly issued passport.

My questions whether they get visa for 10 years in the current passport or not?
