Visa Query

Post by brian76 » Fri Aug 14, 2015 8:00 pm

Hi,

First of all I am sorry to post this query in this section, as I could not find an appropriate section.But I would really appreciate if some one could clarify this query and then delete this topic as I know it does not fit here.

My sis-in-law is flying from Canada to India via London Heathrow. She holds a Indian Passport. She also has a UK business visa (she had come over for client work sometime back).

My Query is, can she come out of the airport and visit us in London as she has 8 hours of stopover. Will she have an issue at UK immigration as she might be out on transit for a few hours with a Business visa. Will the immigration officer question her for using the Business visa for transit?

I would really appreciate for a prompt reply, as she intends to come early week.

Thank you for your support

Regards,
Brian
