Family Visitor Visa

Post by ilrupdates » Fri Feb 01, 2013 9:23 pm

Hi members I am recently settled in UK and want to sponsor my real brother from Pakistan on visit visa.
He is currently working as tailor. what type of documents does he need from Pakistan to support his visitor application?

very generally:
1. he should be able to show economic,family ties with home country so that the HO know he has something he has to go back to.
2. Sufficient money in the account so that he can pay his way through.

Thanks for reply dear i have read all the supporting documents for family visitor visa. And I myself will sponsor him from his application fee to air ticket fee and his staying expenditures here in UK. He himself has neither bank account in Pakistan nor his business is registered there. He is just a common tailor there.
My question is that if I am sponsoring him form A to Z, does he still need to show economic activity in Pakistan?
Is it still compulsory for him to have a bank account and funds there?
