Family Visitor Visa any advantage ?

Hi,

My mother's visitor visa to UK was rejected twice (August 2013 and April 2014). I am putting the reason for rejections, Both the times they have issue with her financial status in India. I am on ILR now, if she apply for Family Visitor Visa instead of General Vistor Visa is there going to be any advantage ?

She is not employed and it is difficult to prove that she is has good financial commitments to go back. I was always showing her properties and savings account bank balance.

1st Time Rejection: August 2013
Reason:In your application form you state that you have no monthly income, but that you receive income from friends and family and you have savings, properties and other income. You have submitted a bank book as evidance of your fainancial circumstances from State bank of India showing a closing balance on 25th July 2013 of Rs. 380,291.00. All but Rs. 20,291 of the balance has been entered on your account after 24th July. This does not match your stated income (of Rs. 0 a month) and the depostits are not cinsistent with the history of the account. Your bank statement therefore does not support your claimed income or satisfy me that the money is genuinely yours. I am not satisfied there that you have presented an accurate picture of your economic circumstances
in India which leads me to doubt your intentions in the UK.


2nd Time Rejection: April 2014
Reason: You have declared on your visa application form that you have a monthly income of GBP30000 and GBP8785 from properties and rent together with savings and investments respectively. You have not however provided documentation to show that you can generate an income with this money. I am not satisfied therefore that your financial circumstances are as you have stated, and as a result, I consider that you have failed to show sufficiently strong family, social or economic ties to India

I am worried that she was rejected 2 times already and how it will effect her future applications.

Thanks,
Sri.

After applying twice as family visitor, trying for general visitor? Please think what you doing.

You have yourself stated it is difficult to present her documentary evidence. Visa category is NOT the problem, the documentary evidence presented to the ECO is THE ISSUE.

I believe you meant INR30,000/- per month.

After two refusals on same reasons, you would really really need to work on the paperwork before attempting any further applications.

see for example in her first application you stated 0 monthly income and second application GBP30000 monthly income. This is hugely inconsistent in any regards, unless applicant has clarified and corrected the errors/omissions in hindsight in cover letter to minute details with the second application.
