Frequent Visit

[Calendula]

The reason I asked earlier in the thread what your future intentions are, was due to considering whether you would want to settle in the UK eventually.
There may be a possibility that you would qualify either as an unmarried partner or a parent under the Family Reunion route as your daughter and her mother have refugee status.
As far as qualifying as an unmarried partner, did you live with your daughter's mother for a minimum of 2 years in a relationship 'akin to marriage' before your daughter and her arrived in the UK as refugees?

Actually my business is in my home country and i dont want to leave it.

If I use Parent Route how can i qualify? There is a condition that child should be in UK for seven years and my daughter is 1 year and 10months old.

We met in UK and became friend. We were just have phone contact in our home country. Yes in UK our friendship is more then 2 years old. I am also contributing money in upbringing of my daughter. I am in direct contact with mother of my daughter since December 2013. She applied for Assyl in Sep. 2014. Our relationship is mentioned in Assyl Application. She was granted RILR in Feb. 2015 along with my daughter.

You don't qualify for the parent route as you aren't resident in the UK and you don't intend to settle here.

So every time i should apply for visitor visa?

[noajthan]

There's no visa for medical-related family visits.
All you can do is be aware of limitations with a UK visit visa and try not to overuse them.

I want to visit in the same intervals.

Will it be ok for next visa application?

[Casa]

No one can guarantee anything, but as noajthan has already said, do your best to limit your visits and period of stay in the UK and explain clearly in your next application the reasons you need to be here.

Thanks to you all for replying.

One of my friend suggested me this;

https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration ... ly-members

and check under Familily life as a parent of a child in the UK

Can i apply under this category and then can go and come back from Uk so that my business should not be disturbed?

Thanks

[Casa]

I'm not convinced that this application will enable you to come and go as I believe it's intended for someone who wishes to settle in order to share in the upbringing of their child. However not wanting to dismiss it, wait for views of others who may have more to add on the subject.

E-ECPT.3.1. The applicant must provide evidence that they will be able to adequately maintain and accommodate themselves and any dependants in the UK without recourse to public funds


As i am outside UK then how can i proove that i can accomodate myself and any dependent, unless i will not have any job in UK, and job can only be started if i will be allowed to enter?

[Casa]

I don't believe you can as this route is for someone intending to reside and later settle in the UK, which is why I have my doubts that an application in this category will succeed.

[Calendula]

But just for my knowledge, how one can prove that he can accommodate and maintain himself and dependent and also how can he occupy an accommodation for this purpose from outside the UK?

[Casa]

I'll have to leave this for someone else to come up with a suggestion. I may well be missing something.

I haven't read the specific requirements for the application in question here or have knowledge on it, but just responding to this specific clause/requirement which appears in just about every visa application I've made to either enter the UK or extend existing leave.

Examples of evidence would be income from savings, employment, business, property etc.... They want to understand whether you would be able to support yourself by means other than public funds - which you wouldn't be entitled to. The way I read it the income doesn't necessarily need to be earned in the UK.

Are the evidences be same like we provide proof of income/savings by providing business bank statements or employment letter from the employer while applying for visit visa?

Unless anything explicit is mentioned I'd say the form of evidence you've mentioned would be fine. However I can't comment on what would be considered sufficient income to support yourself for the type of visa you are applying for. My guess is that this would vary from one type of visa application to another, based on the duration of stay permitted/requested.

One more thing which came in front in Immigration Rules Appendix FM: family members

https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration ... ly-members

Under the Section EC-PT: Entry clearance as a parent of a child in the UK it is mentioned in
Relationship requirements that;

E-ECPT.2.2. The child of the applicant must be-
(a) under the age of 18 years at the date of application;
(b) living in the UK; and
(c) a British Citizen or settled in the UK.

Now my daughter is on Refugee Leave to Remain Status. So she is Not a British Citizen or Settled in the UK.

[Calendula]

can i be eligible to apply for visa of a parent of a child in UK, on compassionate grounds?

[noajthan]

As child is not settled or British you are essentially just visiting UK. A general visit visa appears to be the appropriate visa.

[Calendula]

As far as qualifying as an unmarried partner, did you live with your daughter's mother for a minimum of 2 years in a relationship 'akin to marriage' before your daughter and her arrived in the UK as refugees?

No we were not of any relationship before her arrival in UK. We were just phone friends and never met before her arrival in UK.
