Should I mention my child when applying visa for my father?

[Jayia]

Last year my father visited me as we celebrated the birth of our baby. Since the baby was sick, after six months, we applied for him to stay with us, but it was rejected. So he returned.

Now we want him to visit us again. I have read stories about how your relatives can be rejected on the grounds that they would help with newborn care, thus preventing a child care worker from getting a job.

The advice in this case is to never volunteer information. You should not mention that the relative is coming to help take care of the child.

However, in my case, the officers know that my dad used to apply for the extension of the visa.

So in the new application form, do we have to explain again and therefore, have to mention our child?

My sincere thanks,

I think when you apply this time you should apply for your dad as a visitor point of view and dont need to explain or tell about BABY or taking care things.. but you shd mention abt the previous rejection with details..

based on ur post, i think last time when u applied for ur dad u revealed the info that he will take care of child which lead to the rejection..

goodluck
