Hi,
I had applied for a general visitor visa for my mother in law which has got rejected. My current visa ICT T 2 is expiring in August 2014.However same is under extension and I expect to receive my Biometric card by end of August. As my visa was expiring in August and I wanted my mother in law to visit us in July, I had provided the documents of my Brother in Law as the invitee.He has a UK ILR and he had shown my mother in law as his aunt . Please find attached the rejection reasons:
• You state that you wish the visit the UK for a period of 6months,although you have failed to provide any justification or your plans for wanting to go and remain in the UK for 6months,considering your commitment in the country of habitual stay, no matter how little
• When questioned in your application form about what your spouse’s details are, you had listed your own details, as oppose to his and it is not known why you have not included this information
• You appear to be unemployed and appear to be supported and as evidence of your finances, you submitted your bank statement with State Bank Of India ( jointly owned by you and your spouse ) which shows a closing balance of Rs.109,044.71 on 12-06-2014 a second account from the same bank with a balance of Rs. 700,000.00 on 31-05-2014. I have carefully considered your application; however you have not provided any credible or verifiable evidence demonstrating how you accrued all the funds shown in your account
• In reaching this decision, I took in to account the fact that you presented a property deed, nevertheless, this still does not show the source of the monies how you incurred it , bearing in mind that you declared in your form that you do not have savings,property or other income e.g from stocks or shares
My questions:
a) Is there a cooling off period after application rejection before I can reapply again?
1. Can my brother in law invite my mother in law as his aunt?
One of the rejection points was: You state that you wish the visit the UK for a period of 6months,although you have failed to provide any justification or your plans for wanting to go and remain in the UK for 6months,considering your commitment in the country of habitual stay,no matter how little
2. Considering the above rejection reason, is visiting a relative for a period of 6months too long considering that the relative is not a direct relation? Is that a strong ground for rejection?
3. If we re-apply again the reduce the period of requested stay to 2 months, will that again create an issue saying there is a discrepancy between your earlier form and current form?
4. I intend to draft a covering letter alongwith the application form. In that, do I need to put down the rejection reasons and put in a justification against each point?
5. On the financial part, my mother in law had submitted bank statements work 8 lac, fixed deposits of 4 lacs and house deed and her husband's salary statements.Still the visa office has questioned the source of funds.
Can you guide me with the best possible answers to these questions
