Re: Can I stay longer than then days incidated in application form of a 2 year UK standard visitor visa?

Look at it from the Entry Clearance Officer's point of view when assessing future visa applications. The visitor visa was granted according to the information given in the application. The decision is also partly based on the length of stay in the UK declared when applying. If the stay is later exte...

I believe the criteria is "when you were aged between 18 and 24" not 'under 24".

Your Islamic marriage in Pakistan won't have been 'automatically registered' in the UK.

Re: Visit Visa parents 6 months, ?Reset

In order to remain within the terms of the visitor visa, your parents shouldn't be spending more time in the UK in a 12 month rolling period, than they are spending in their home country. Frequent visits could be viewed as an attempt to reside in the UK.
