Thanks a lot bro.... guides me in right direction

Good, because unpaid NHS bill or use of NHS when not permitted to is a basis for refusal. yes I have heard such stories too, but good that they always have it.... can I mention shorter but frequent visits .. coz genuinely my parent do not intend to stay here and they wish to have shorter visits but...

well my parents always carry insurance when they visit us, so NHS wise we are fine!

That was then but this is now.

Sound's like an old ABC lyric.....

have things changed lately ?

I know cases where a long term visa was issued in similar cases.. hence I think staying 4/5 months is no issue ..... I hope!

In that case, based on the associated cost mentioned it appears that continuing to do the same would be more cost effective than applying for a long validity visit visa. Fees A Standard Visitor visa costs £87. The fee for a long-term visit visa depends on its length: 2 years - £330 5 years - £600 1...

For each of the visits you've listed, did they make 4 separate visit visa applications and granted 4 visa's valid for 6 months each?

yea made 4 separate applications and got 6 months each time

But till the time u abide by ur visa terms u r a visitor.

Their visits have been

2 months
4 months
5 months
5 months

Suggest aim for a 2 year visitor visa first. They need to show a solid and good history to get a 5 or 10 year visa. How long have they stayed to visit on all their previous visit visas? they have been in uk 4 time before, that should count as solid history and they never have been in breach of any ...

Hi All My parents are planning to visit me this year and wish to apply for a long term visa ( 5 or 10 yrs) I have a few doubts, 1. they have visited my 4 times and practically visit me every year. What reason should we give for asking for a long term visa, saying my children are based in UK and we w...

They would normally give you the Royal mail or delivery reference number. I think it is only early days and a lot of people would have applied for nationality nearer to BREXIT. You can ring the NCS and hopefully they have your tracking number so you can check if it was received by the Home Office. ...

Hi All I submitted my documents to NCS Sutton, all they did was to take my documents. didn't give me any information about how to track. now when I see timeline posts, people say date of receipt by home office., I am not sure how and where do I check if my application has been received by home offic...

I was granted ilr on 30mar 15, so i should be fine u think?

Hi all I am little confused about my upcoming nCs appointment. Afaik i shud have been in UK 5 years before the daate of my appointment with ncs service. So for ex. I am seeing council on 20 june 16.

Hi friends

I just want to ask where can i get my documents translated from India that are approved and accepted by vfs/ukba ?

Unlike ILR, which expires if you do not return within two years, there is no limit on the amount of time you can spend outside the country as a British citizen. As a British citizen, you have the right of abode in the UK and the immigration officer can not question you on when you return. His duty ...

I think after getting UK passport there is no limit on absence from UK and nobody will stop on return for working abroad. there is no limit but they asking on the form what is your intension, where would you like to live in future. Yea my intentions r to b here in uk ofcourse, all my serup is here ...

My parents  are senior citizen. They  have two children ( son and daughter) both are married and are citizen of UK. My mother`s  brother is also citizen of UK. My  mother`s sister and brother are citizen of Canada. They  have already travelled to UK 7 times and Canada 4 times since 1988 on visitor v...

I didnt mention about 5 day gap but i mentioned all the dates and also mentioned i entered within 90days and hence my date of visa was to be taken thats it

it may be safer to apply for a 2 year visa prior to 5, unless the difference in cost is not a consideration. do you say this to be on safer side or are there any cases which have suffered in similar scenarios ? and of-course Money is a concern but if chances are more towards success I may be intere...

Correct ! as for now, I am quite confident that once they have a long term visa, there will not be any such problem because we do not want/plan to break any of the visa conditions. the only concern right now is: whether will they get a long term visa or not ? just want to be sure that neither our mo...
