Just clarify this in the application (prefer to add to additional details section) and if needed, you can add an affidavit to confirm that same person has been known by multiple names.

Hi, My parents have applied for Visitor Visa for UK. They attended appointment at Jaipur VFS center in India today. At the VFS center, the staff did not look at Original Documents and did not keep them either. They just said that since you have now uploaded your document so we do not need originals....

I have appointment in just a day and would really appreciate if someone can share their knowledge?

Thanks

Both of my parents are planning to come together to UK. My parents have a joint bank account that they are using...

Hi, I am applying for Visit visa for my father who has been to UK on Visit Visa 2 times in past. He has been issued Visit Visa twice in past - 6 months each. There is a question in the Visa form as - Have you been issued with a UK visa in the past 10 years? Subsequent question to the above is - Date...

Hi ILR.dot.dot.dot,

Are you referring to 180 days in a year period rule for Tourist visa?

Someone with 2 years visitor visa cannot stay in the Uk for 2 continuous years,they can stay only 180 days in a one year period.


Cheers!

Hi Zerubbabel, Please see some of the URLs that I have posted in my last post where Visit Visa got rejected due to the vary same reason that I mentioned. Thanks. I think the OP is raising an issue that doesn't exist and bringing to it a solution that isn't. Imagine a second, the fact that you state ...

Hi gatha_vdm, The rules are not what you are saying. There are several rejection on this forum due to the reason I have mentioned (staying longer than what was entered in the initial application even though the visa was for 6 months). Thanks. Hi ILR.dot.dot.dot, I have a quick query. Can you please ...

Thanks Zerubbabel. In that case, shall I explain this long stay to avoid any cancellation or avoid it all together as explaining may actually make my case worst? Other than this reason, I have a strong application (at least in my eyes). Also, shall I apply both the applications together or separatel...

Hi secret.simon, Do HO asks for explanation of previous long stay or do they reject straight away? I could not find any post on the forum which says that they have been contacted and asked for reason of long stay. Just to avoid any complication, shall I apply for my mother first and once she gets vi...

Thanks Zerubbabel. I would apply for 2 years visa then and would not use word "overstay" in the application. Hello I think jumping from 6 months to 10 year visa is asking for trouble really. My brother is on 5 year visitor visa and it took him nearly 8 years of regular visits to get to that point. I...

Hi All, It's a long post so please bear with me. I am planning to apply for 10 year visit visa for my parents and have few queries. I am their sponsor of the visa and I would bear all their expenses. They will stay with me while in UK. My father has visited UK 2 times and my mother has visited UK 3 ...

No.

How about European court of justice?

For new Visitor applications, they have to acknowledge these refusals and explain all of the ECO's misconceptions. Point out any previously overlooked documents. Include any any additional supporting evidence to back this up. Can I not appeal on family grounds? And even after reapplying and explain...

I asked UKVI and got a email advising to create another application and request refund on the old one.

Kindly also note that it is not necessary to start a new topic with each question or query you have. Keep your questions in this topic.

Is there any reference to above advice? I could not find anything on gov.uk which says that manual corrections are allowed?

Hi, I have filled UK Standard Visitor Visa application for my sister with upcoming appointment on 2-Mar-17. I have missed one of the additional name in the application. Now that the application is submitted and Visa fee is paid, how can I make the correction to the application? Can I make changes ma...

I do not want visa start date to be deferred. Can the visa gets cancelled if it is applied more than 3 months in advance?
