Tourist Visa Unable to Return Back

Post by Rambo_ILR » Sun Mar 01, 2026 6:55 am

Hello

My parents are in UK, with visa expiring 03 March 2026

Due to war conflicts in Middle East the flights are cancelled with emirates, air India (28 Feb & 1 March flights cancelled) we tried with both emirates and air India

Unsure when the situation would be clear for travel, but visa is running out on 3rd March

Please any advise on how to deal with the issue,. Do we need to inform UKVI or visa extensions

Thanks in advance

How close are your parents to the six months limit on their stay in the UK?

They do not appear to meet the requirements for extending their stay past six months, but it may be worth applying for such an extension of they are close to the limits if their six months stay in the UK.

As an aside, it is very foolish to have your parents stay in the UK for the full six months of the visit visa in one trip. It may make any future visits by them harder.
