Family Visit Visa

Post by cruise tom » Tue Dec 24, 2013 12:16 pm

Hi All

Can my parents apply for 6 months family visit visa soon after there current family visit visa expires ?

Parents came to UK (currently in London) on 25 July 2013 :
Category - Family Visit Visa 6 month
Current Visit visa expiring on 14 Jan 2014.
Parents leaving back on 9 Jan 2014.

My question is can they apply for another 6 month visit visa on 20 Jan 2014 for example i.e. once there current visa expires and they have left UK on 9th Jan 2014 and they apply from Islamabad-Pakistan ?

Is there any restriction on applying visit visa soon after the current visa finishes as mentioned in above context.

Thank you very much for your support people

Are you sure that they can apply again ?

Some people say they cant apply until they spend 6 months in home country and they cant come back before 6 months

Can you please give me some reference to UKBA link that confirms they can apply ?

Thank you

Hi All

Dear GURU's

I have almost same query? I also heard that one has to wait 6 months to re-enter again on visit visa?
But i didn't find any such info on UKBA website.
My parents also want to come back immediately after completion of there visit visa by reapplying from home country?I know process of reapplying may take a month but is there any restrection that they cant apply unless they complete 6 months back home?

Can some GURU give proper information in this regard?

Thanks

Hi MCR

Do i need to provide any reasoning when they apply again as my parents are leaving on 10th Jan 2014. Visa expiring on 15th Jan 2014.

I want them to apply for visit visa on 1st February 2014 for 1 year/6 month.

a) Do i need to provide any reasons ? Some people are saying you need to provide special reason to show that they are not making UK as there permanent home , Please suggest

Thanks
