Pensioner applying for a Spousal Visa to enter the UK

[SandraArchangel]

Good day, I would like some advice please.

My mother is British and my father is South African. My parents want to leave South Africa and immigrate to the UK permanently. They have been married to each other for over 40 years and my father finally wants to settle in the UK with my mother and his children this year.

What are the requirements for my father to apply for a spousal visa? He was born in 1946 and my mother in 1954. I have read that my mother must be able to support him financially with a job but she is not working here yet. My father although 71 years of age is still able to work and wants to work in landscaping. Will they have issues applying for a spousal visa? I really hope not. I want my parents with me in this beautiful country. They will be living with me in a 4 bedroom house so space wont be an issue. Please HELP!!!!!
