Sponsorship of my married sister and husband to settle UK

Post by Goggy24 » Tue Oct 18, 2011 11:24 am

hi,

I am a UK citizen and wish to sponsor my Married sister and her family to come and settle in the UK. My sister and her family currently reside in Singapore however we want to live together in one country as our family life is suffering and due to distance we are unable to meet often. Both my sister and her husband are high net worth individuals.

Could someone recommend what immigration route can be followed- what forms etc will need to be filled in etc etc ?

I am sufficiently financially capable of sponsoring family members and other facilities are available to me as well.

thanks

They are not eligible for direct settlement (whether or not you can afford to maintain them or that they are wealthy). If they want to settle in the UK they would have to look at various categories of the points-based system that would allow them to live in the UK for a five year period that then gives an opportunity to settle in the UK after that time. Entrepreneur and Investment categories seem the most appropriate.
