Parent Visa

Post by smatt » Sun Apr 30, 2017 2:28 pm

Dear Members,

I'm planning to apply family visitor visa for my parents. When filling the online application (filling the form in the UK on behalf of my parents), do I need 2 separate forms for my Father and Mother or only 1 application is enough?
And the 2nd question is "how much money are you planning to spend on your visit to the UK"? My father has only 1lakh which will reflect on the bank statement. I'm taking care of everything (travel, accommodation etc). How much should he mention? If my Mother has to fill another application, how much should be mentioned in each application form. Kindly let me know that would be very grateful.

Kind Regards,
Smatt

Kindly send me Family (Parent) Visitor Covering Letter (format) not the sponsor letter, I have looked everywhere but couldn't find any. Kindly do needful.

Kind Regards,

There is no template letter. Only your parents can write a letter regarding their visit and circumstances.

Also, please note the big red text in my signature.

Hi, You need 2 separate application forms for your father and mother. And you can mention that your mother is dependant of your father.

Dear Freinds/Members,

Can anyone kindly let me know that if I send my documents as scanned copies they will accept? Anyone has sent the scanning copies recently.

I used scanned copies for my parent's visit visa and was sucessful
Any suggestions I make in the forum are out my personal experience and should not be taken as a legal/professional advise.
