Hi All,
I would like to apply visit visas for my parents from India in December this year. I would be really grateful if anyone of you can answer the below:
1. My father is a retired government official in India and does not get pension each month. He was paid a lump sum whilst retiring. He has those funds in his bank although they are in bank as Fixed deposits. He has around £15k deposits in his bank but the normal balance in his savings account is less than 10000 INR. Is this acceptable?
2. I am going to show around £7k deposit in my current in the UK to prove I have enough funds for their visit. Is this ok or would the UKVI like to see the balance in my parents account? I can prove my employment and also provide 6 to 12 pay slips supporting this income.
3. My parents own a house in India and my brother looks after them so would this be enough proof that they will return to India?
4. Should UKVI wish to see a closing balance in my parents account, can they deposit money into their account now and apply in December considering only 7-8 weeks are left?
Many thanks,
DKV
