Unlikely you will be successful with a visit visa.

From your previous posts, it appears you did apply and were refused a spouse visa and you are preparing to reapply. If you start your own topic, rather than keep posting in a timeline topic, you would get broader advice from members.

No, this is not enough to prove to ECO that you would leave the UK and return.

You should try not to post queries in the timeline threads, particularly the one I have listed. It is better to create your own topic with your queries.

You can continue your questions in this thread regarding visitor or spouse queries.

Credible reasons as to why you;d return, i.e. property, children, job back home - not likely you'd have theses if an spouse visa app is in the offing, but you can try.

As you have already been refused a spouse visa recently, it is probably unlikely that you will get a visitor visa and ECO might think you are trying to circumvent the rules.

We can't tell you what to add to 'prove your ties' as we don't know your circumstances. As Wanderer has advised, there is lots of proof you would need to provide.
