If I recall correctly it ask on the application what right the person being visited in UK has or something along the line,jrs1984 wrote: ↑Wed Dec 21, 2022 7:50 pmHi,
I wish to invite my brother's family in the UK for a short visit of 3-4 weeks starting first week of Feb'23. I want to send them an invitation letter this week, however my current VISA in UK (Tier 2 dependent) is valid only until 22 Jan'23.
I shall be applying for my ILR in first week of Jan but that is still in future and waiting until then may delay their trip in Feb even if I apply a super priority route.
Is there a way around this please? My understanding is that the officer may consider their invitation as invalid due to my current leave ending in Jan.
Thanks.
They can visit the UK in their own rights as stated if nothing is required of you.jrs1984 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 22, 2022 12:47 pmThank you, everyone.
Yes the list of documents ask for proof of my rights to stay in UK - so at this point in time I can share my BRP but i dont think i would have an option to update their application once I apply my ILR in first week of Jan. My brother's application may already be in progress, and until I actually apply I cannot write a letter beforehand saying I will apply for ILR.
Is it necessary for an invitation letter to be shared?
Can they not come as a tourist by themselves without mentioning me (showing hotel accommodation etc.) and then stay at my place once they actually arrive. They are Green card holders in US. They came to UK for few weeks once around 5 years back on a tourist visa when I sponsored them.
As clearly stated by AmazonianX, you're not exactly sponsoring them, you're inviting them. Yes, they can come in their own rights obviously. You're not mandated to present any documents.jrs1984 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 22, 2022 12:47 pmThank you, everyone.
