I'm a British citizen living in the UK for more than 10 years. My mother who is under 65 is now recently widowed and has limited funds
to live in the Ukraine, and no other family members to support her. My British Husband and I would like her to live permantly with us in the UK. We have the resources to do so. Over the past 10 years she has visited us on 6 month visas. The embassy has sometimes issued a visa, no questions other times it has been more diffcult, as they never believe she would return. Although she never overstayed.
My concern is that they would find some excuse not to issue a dependacy visa, for some reason or another, and we would have to appeal etc. And this would jepordise her applying for any other type of visa.
Although my mother would comply with all the questions asked. The point below seems a grey area, which could be interpreted in different ways. I'm not sure what exceptional compassionate circumstances. means.
- a parent or grandparent under the age of 65 living alone in the most exceptional compassionate circumstances and mainly dependent financially on relatives settled in the United Kingdom
Has anyone had experience or bringing Non EU i.e Ukrainian family members to the UK ?
Thanks
