Hello

There is no specific time really but they need to see that the person is not making the UK home by frequent, successive and long visits.

If she spent the last 5 years 2 months out of the UK, then 5 months in the UK in succession, that could compromise her future visas. Sometimes they even spot it at the border.

They want to see that the person is staying mainly out of the UK.

Thanks for reply
u think i should now wait for her another visa to apply or just apply anyways and see wat happen ?
U think any document i can put to help her getting the visa process easier
I have 2 kids and i cant get her permanent visa bc of rules the only way to get her visa is tourist

Ho will likely take the view that she is using a tourist visa to stay for extended periods of time in the UK, ie residing not visiting and spending less time in her home country. This means they would view Her as a non genuine visitor.

How check her full travel history to the UK.
