They don't qualify for ILR. They will need to apply for a Dependent visa first...from outside the UK. Here's the UKBA link -
http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visas ... dependent/

The current fee for a Dependent entry settlement visa is £1,814 per applicant.

Sorry...yes if they are granted entry outside of the UK, the settlement visa would be Indefinate. Regarding the level of funds, the minimum at present is £105.95 for a couple weekly. Wait for confirmation from others as to whether this calculation is used for dependent parents.
Are they mainly or wholly dependent on you at present and have no other family they can depend on in their home country?

interestinly para 317-319 of the immigration rules does not demand an entry clearance for Leave to Remain to be granted to these categories of dependant relatives, but i agree the UKBA will make life tough for them if they dont hold a valid entry clearance in this category, by trying to invoke 322(7) if they had entered with a visitors visa and immediately on arrival seek to apply for ILR, except if they can provide justification for sudden change in circumstance.

if the couple are at pensionable age then the higher pension credits rate would need to be used.

Obviously the OP would also need to show s/he also had sufficient funds for the rest of his/her household.

In all the circumstances and in agreement with the previous contrubutors, i will advice that the OP's parent apply for entry cleaeance from iverseas, for a variety of reasons. However i find it hard to see the level of soundness of a refusal under 322(7) if some one meets all the substantive requirement of 317-319.

Take for example a 63 years old student, who is expected to live UK on completion of their course. If that parent then makes an application under par 319 for live to remain, can you imagine her application being refused on the basis of 322(7), i very much doubt so.

There is no longer any requirement for a student to show an intention leave the UK upon completion of their course.

Coming to the UK as a visitor means just that, the person has entered the UK as a visitor and has declared in their applications they intend to return at the end of their visit, unless their circumstances have suddenly changed (and by changed, not that they have now reached the age of 65) they have every chance of being refused under 322(7)

Paragraph 82(ii) does state a student should have an intention of leaving UK on completion of their studies.

I believe as previously stated that an Entry clearance in this category should be applied for, and in my initial post i did not dispute the existence of 322(7), however when all factors are considered it may not carry the weight it is intended to carry.

Para 82(ii) relates to prospective students. The rules relating to tier 4 students have no requirement for the applicant to intend to leave the UK upon completion of their studies.

What do you mean when you say "from post in the UK"?
