Hi All,

I am in similar situation as the previous post.

Me and my family here is on ILR and I want to invite my brother with his wife and three kids to spend their summer vacation with us.

1) I understand for my brother and his wife I can apply family visitor. Which type of visa for their kids?
2) What documents do I need to show for children? all three go to school.
3) As in my brother family he is the sole earner so when filing my sis-in-law form do I need to mention dependent children per 4.17 of VAF1B in her application what I mean is this about financial dependency or overall?

Thanks to all of you in advance.

Hi Guys,

I am in the same boat as you. I have filled in the family visitor for my mother, my sister, my cousin and my niece. I dont know if that will be ok as my cousin and niece don't count as family members anymore which I just realised late last nigh. They came to visit me 2 years ago under family visitor. I am trying to amend the application online but its grayed out. We don't know what to do and the appointment is on Friday 9th May.

I have sent an email to UKBAIG.ServiceIntegration@fco.gov.uk but all I get is an automatic generated email.

Please help.

Best regards,
