Is a house inspection report needed for a family visit visa?

[MSS]

We are applying for my brother in law to come and visit us next year from Pakistan.

I am wondering if a house inspection report is needed for his application. I don't think it is, but my husband thinks it is needed.

We live in my Dad's house and have a spare reception room downstairs that can be converted into a bedroom for his stay. We have a letter written from my father stating that he will be happy to provide accommodation.
My Dad owns the house, but I don't know where the mortgage papers are. Are these needed? Could we get a letter from my Dad stating how many rooms there are in the house and get that attested by a solicitor?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

It is not a mandatory requirement. Just apply with the mandatory documents stated in the guidance without including unnecessary documents that may end up confusing the caseworker.


Kind Regards
