Re: Visit Visa UK Embassy Email - Your UK visa application has been issued

I don't think you can make an appeal on visit visa decisions anymore. As for the statement, did you provide a sponsorship declaration form to explicitly mention of the support? I have applied for my mother's visa and along with my father's and my bank statements, I have also included a cover letter ...

Re: UK VISIT VISA

You don't need to provide any proof of a return ticket but you might need to mention the intended date of travel.
I'd also add some documentation to prove your mother-in-law's ties with her home country .. it could be a document showing her husband, other kids, finances or property etc.

My parents received “issued” email in junk/spam folder. I would encourage you to check junk folder on daily basis

Thanks I'll keep an eye.

Did you put yourself as one a sponsor as well? If yes, then did the Embassy ever contact you to verify the details?

Re: Proof of relationship UK standard visitor visa

I am not sure about India but in Pakistan, you can a family registration certificate issue by the govt. that you can attach with the visa application.

I am sure other people who've been in the same situation as you will have a better answer.

Good luck
