not your fault mate, may be ask for confirmation/documentation from those suggesting NHS is not free on ILE.

The purpose of the undertaking is that you don't abandon your dependent in which case the state will be directly responsible to provide shelter.

"Non EU ILR holders should not be allowed to access benefits for first five years". The govt is trying this for EU citizen too...

The undertaking you have signed is only for public funds as mentioned in the undertaking form you have signed. Does that paper have any mention of NHS or treatment costs? It wont stand a minute in court even if HO/NHS goes to court to recover costs from you. You are bound to provide care, maintenanc...

Navi123 thanks I don't want to discourage you but I need to be very honest here as it is about family - I would have never applied for settlement visa had my lawyer firm warned me about the danger of automatic refusal of the visit visa. But it was my mistake too, I didn't do enough research before i...

As I started this original post I want to update with the outcome of my leagal battle with the HO. It was hard, very hard, but in the end I won! That's why the victory is so pleasing. HO went to Upper Tribunal but were refused the persmission to appeal. In the end they gave up in November 2014. My m...

I can understand your situation and your emotions to care for your mother living with her in UK. You need to be aware that this ADR visa if refused then she will find it almost impossible to get a visitor visa. so it is risky however, if you are confident your mother's condition is serious and she m...

The current govt. has removed the appeal process for visitor visa and that is the problem. Because if Adult Dependent Relative visa is refused, it is almost impossible to get the visitor visa; so if your parents are currently visiting you for 6 months a year that also they won't be able to do and vi...

thanks for looking up the quotes.:) I was scared to see these prices when I began my search fo her private medical cover but then quickly decided to do what I did when I was looking for my car insurance on these comparison web sites. I am now with a leading car insurance for almost half of the lowes...

Thanks MPH80.

Your comments filled me with confidence to prepare for a hard battle. Of course, I will be ready for the bad news.

I provide the ECO, complete break-up of every expense my mother needs plus - insurance in india, doctor fees, travel, carer costs, costs associated with other arrangements when carers won't turn up or are call-in sick, cost of my visits (as she calls me every time for anything she needs there or hav...

Thanks for your reply. Really appreciate it. The reason for refusal is that the ECO is not satisfied with the evidences that the care available currently cannot continue in india and is not affordable there even considering all the expenses including the travel costs for visits. Also not satisfied w...

Thanks so much for your reply. The DWP guidelines, for a single person, the amount required is £165.25 a week. so the (£165.25 * 52/12 = £716 a month) plus £65 a month premium for private medical cover. Total £784 which < £900. Now upto £795 I can afford but not £900. The care she needs in india wil...

And my immigration status is I am a british citizen

Elderly dependent visa for my mother is refused on the basis that the expenses(£900 a Month) are affordable for her son(me). The care required is available in india etc. My case: Mother 67 years old, father passed away recently after 45 years of marriage. Mother has medical conditions: Spondylitis, ...
