Hi,
My dad is still working at 65 but will soon retire to head back to Pakistan. I am myself a UK citizen and reading the IND website, the rules are quite clear on how to go about applying for a settlement visa for them.
But, there are a few difficulties like "proving that there is no one to look after them over there". This should not be a problem since this is the reality. I am sure it is still going to be quite difficult to really prove it in some way.
What I am not sure about is the actual experience of going through the process. I would be very grateful if someone on the forum could share their experience of applying for their parents, what documents exactly they had to gather? how long it took? what were the problems etc? People tell me that this is a very difficult category and its next to impossible to get an approval. Only under extreme circumstances do the HO even consider the application etc?
Thanks
