Sponsor Bank balance query for UK visitor visa

Post by suhail3007 » Sun Jan 25, 2015 7:35 pm

Hello,

I am on ILR and planning to call my parents on 6 month visitor visa who are retired and live in India. I wanted to know approx how much balance do I have to show in my bank account to ensure it satisifies the immigration of my ability to take care of my parents financially while they are here ?

I am aware I have to show last 6 months bank statement & payslips but I can't figure out anywhere approx what sort of a balance would be sufficient to ensure successful application ?

Any info would be of great help

Thanks in advance

Regards

there is no specific balance amount - it depends on the number of visitors, duration of the trip, nature of sponsorship etc. also evidence of sponsor's monthly income is of more importance than savings.
