Hello everyone,

Can someone please guide me about family visa requirements from Pakistan? I am a British citizen and work as a self employed. My brother would like to visit me and meet my family for the first time. I would like to sponsor him and provide a healthy Bank statement and saving account. My question is can only my documents like statement, payslips, tax return etc etc you name it be sufficient for his apply.
The reason I am asking is he has no bank account the rest of the documents he has.
**Does it matter if he has no Bank statement?**

Thank you.

It's not entirely possible that he doesn't get the visit visa, but the chances are very slim.
Everyone visiting the UK is treated as a potential absconder, the onus is on the visitor to prove that they would be returning back to where they've come from after their visit.
If your brother isn't a student back home, worker or with strong family ties, his planned visit here would not be seen as genuine.

It would be seen as he has nothing to go back home to. Your documents are just support docs. Your brothers docs are the main docs, and it seems like he has none.

Thx for the reply,

He is running his own business of fridge and air conditioning installation and repair.
Not everyone has bank statements so how they get their visas?

Most likely they don´t get a visa. Immigration/visa rules do not generally make accommodations for what´s customary locally.
