Visit Visa

Post by Emy » Tue Aug 25, 2009 12:11 pm

Hi,

I recently got PSW visa in UK. I want to call my parents from Nepal to UK for my graduation ceremony in October 2009. But due to their medical condition i want to call my elder sister along with them so we can take care of them properly while they are here. I have heard that its very hard to get visit visa for sister as she is over 25.

My parents have enough properties and bank balance over there and my sister is taking care of dad's business.

Please suggest me what can i or my parents do in other to obtain visa for them and my sister.

Thank You
Emy

So who will take care of the business if they all travel to the UK, including your sister? Please make sure you cross all your 't's and dot all your 'i's when you make the application. They must have an answer for this, should they be asked. Many a visitor visa fail because applicants have not shown that they have strong enough ties to return to their homeland (well, in the ECO's opinion, anyway. And let's face it, that's the only opnion that counts at the end of the day!).
ECOs can pick on the smallest of discrepancies! Always keep that in mind.
