Confused due visitor visa duration mentioned on the covering letter

[Sleepy09]

Hello, I am a british national and I have recently applied for my parents to join me here in uk for a visit through a solicitor. Due to some confusion the solicitor stated that my family is here for 4 weeks time and he'ssubmittedthe application, but I want them here for 8-10 weeks time. Now the Solicitor is saying is doesn't matter whatever time we state on the covering letter as long as they're staying within their visa permitted period. Can you please help me here? Will staying 8 weeks rather than 4 weeks mentioned in the visa application would be problematic for further visa applications? My mother has already been to UK for 2 weeks time a couple of years back.

Technically it shouldn't be a problem with the application. TBH, in my opinion, the solicitor might have done you a solid.
I have friends that have put 2 weeks on their applications and ended up spending 6-8 weeks. It had no effect when they renewed again. Provided your parents have enough funds on them when they turn up at the airport.
