You can't invite family members to live here either for short periods or perm. The can apply to visit of course. UK discourages chain migration so it's impossible to import family members especially under the current focus immigration has.friday wrote:Hi All,
Does it matter whether I am British or not if I want to invite one of a family member (parents or sister..) to either live for a short period with me in UK? or premanently move to live with me here?
Would being British speed up the process for one of my family to visit me in UK (i.e. obtain a VISA)?
If I get married in the future, what kind of VISA do I need for my wife so that she can live with me here in UK? What are the requirments for her to become British?
Thank you in advance.

Does being British make it easier for a family member to visits me? I previously invited parents while I was on student/work VISA without complications. I thought being a British would be an advantage? I guess I should follow the same route.
What do you mean by WRT please?
Thank you again.
It's impossible for you to sponsor your brother, even if he is dependent financially. There is no visa category for that.friday wrote:Hi All,
I have just noticed that there is a VISA named: "family of a settled person’. I feel that this is exactly what I needed for my brother or mother to live with me here in UK. The eligibility criteria sounds reasonable. I do not understand what you think it is difficult to get this VISA. It seems that I am missing the point here?
May you please let me know what you think.
