Visa for Parents

Post by awadhwa » Sat Jan 06, 2018 9:37 pm

Hello,
My Queries is related to sponsoring visa for my parents.
I have moved to UK in September,17 end and started work in mid October on Tier 2General Visa and I hold bank statements from mid of October 17 to till date.
I am applying for the tourist visa for my parents to call them for six months, and want to show myself as a sponsor for the same.

Is November and December salary statements and bank statements sufficient for showing myself as a sponsor for calling my parents.

I am planning to attach the following documents.
1. Bank statements from 30th october to till date.
2. salary slips of November and December.
3. Council tax and electricity bill of my house.

Please suggest, if I am doing the right thing, or Am I required to attach some additional documents. My major concern is whether a person, who is three months old in the country, can sponsor his parents for six months over tourist visa.

-thanks
Ashish

Your parents have to qualify for a visitor visa.

What evidence of their social, family, financial, employment, property ties to home country will they submit?

6 months is not a 'visit', it is 'residing'.

thanks for your reply, For how long, can you get a visitor visa.

Evidence to the home country is following -

Family - My Parent's daughters are in home country and They will give in writing that they will return to the home country.
My father's brother and other relatives are also in the home country.

Financial income - My father receives income as interest from deposited money in his name and my mother receives pension as she is a retired school teacher. Both are having funds of around 10,000 pounds cash as well in their accounts.

Property ties - They do not have a property in their name.
