Number of entries on UK 6 month Visit visa

Hi Guys, I have been an avid follower of these forums and it has helped a lot 10 years ago when i applied for my wifes spouse visa. An amazing place for the amount of information on here.
10 years later now im applying for my Mother in laws visit visa, hopefully she can be here in time for a third child due in a few weeks and help us out for a few months.
Visa applied for yesterday via gerrys office

I paid for the quick 5 day priority service and hopefully good news in about a week.

Just a quick question to anyone who can help as i couldnt find the answer doing a search here.

If she is granted 6 month visit visa, is it a single one time entry only? Can she leave and then still come back within the same 6 month visa period.

Reason why i ask that she would only be here for a few months max, but we usually have our summer holidays planned abroad with the kids.
I know im jumping the gun, but was hoping she could join us on the holiday abroad to Turkey probably, then come back and around a week or so later return back home?

Would that be allowed?

It is a multiple entry visa.

Oh great. Just really hope she gets the visa granted now, would be great weight off our minds and let us do some forward planning

So she wouldnt have any problem at airport coming back for 2nd entry? I mean could she potentially refused entry 2nd time around by the immigration officer?

I will have her flight details and ticket to leave the uk to return back home which would be within a week to 2 weeks of her 2nd entry.

She could yes but probably unlikely. As long as she leaves before the expiry date of her visit visa.

Thank you for such a quick reply and prompt response.

Much appreciated.
