Can tier 1 dependent invite her parents?

Post by qmenon » Wed May 11, 2011 10:30 am

Hi,
I am on Tier 1 and my wife is on Tier 1 Dependent. Is it ok if my wife can invite (& sponsor) her parents to visit UK?
She is working full time and has got all supporting docs to sponsore their visit?
Please let me know if Tier 1 Dependents can invite parents & sponsor their visit?

Thanks
J

Thanks Vinny.. I could not find it anywhere in the link you posted. The link just says what the visitors need to do.. but it does not say anywhere that a dependent can invite?
Are you sure.. sorry for askin again?

I haven't seen anything that says dependants cannot invite visitors.

info needed on Dependent Sponsoring Visitor visa...

Post by obc 14 » Sat Feb 25, 2012 11:38 pm

Hi All,

I am on Tier 1 General Visa and would like to invite my parents.
But my wife is going to sponsor for them.Since my wife is dependent do i need to send any of my documents(like passport/visa copy/any bank statements) for supporting??

Do we need to mention any details about main applicant in the covering/Invitation letter?

It would be great if any one can clarify this as this is very urgent.

Thanks in advance.
