I would like to apply for a family visit visa for my mother in law to visit us in the UK, I will be sponsoring her (flight, accommodation and food). The problem I have, is having a reason to return to Thailand. She does own some property and also has another daughter for whom she lives with. Do you think that would be an adequate reason for her return to Thailand.

Thank you

You will need to get copy of her house book from amper and chanote. When you apply on the last page it asks for any other information... Write in there she has house (copy docs inc) and other family who she lives with. Then cross your fingers!!!

Hi

My Mother in Law visited us last year for a period of 3 ½ months to help out, after the birth of our little girl.

She is in her mid fifties, owns her own house, a small farm (under 30acres) and has a partner but is not married.

Both her daughters live here in the UK.

If my memory serves me right the supporting documentation supplied to support her application was.

  1. Proof of ownership of her house & land
  2. Sponsorship letters from both us & her other daughter & partner
  3. Bank statements to support sponsorship letters
  4. Copies of her passport proving she had not overstayed on any previous visit

2 things we learnt the hard way if she has any obligations that could suffer in her absence, explain what arrangements have been made to cover these in her absence.

We initially had a visa for an uncle turned down because we had not explained how his farm would be maintained in his absence when he came to give my wife away at our wedding.

And 2 if your application is successful & your mother in law does not speak English an explanatory letter from you explaining the reason for the visit with your mobile phone number is a good idea, she can then hand it to immigration on arrival.

Last visit my mother in law was held in a side office for 45mins due a misunderstanding, the immigration officers can refuse entry if they believe there are any discrepancies from the application & the actual visit
