Hi guys, please I’ll be applying for visit visa for my mum to come visit me in the uk. I included in the invitation letter that I will be the one sponsoring her trip. I will submit my bank statement (£7900) and still submit her bank statement that has about 2.5m.

In the question where it was asked “How much money are you personally planning to spend on your visit to the UK”. I put 1.7m for my mum there, please should I change it and put 0

Thank you

Tutu82:

You need to wait as long as it takes for your circumstance of refusal to change.
visit visa refusal last month and this month you want a skilled visa yes?.It does not look good.

giselle237:
actually as skilled worker visa is points based, they are allowed.
If they don’t get the number of points visa wont be granted , if they do it’ll be granted. They are free to apply without any cooling off period.

Tutu82:

I never said it is not allowed i said circumstance has to change for example if his refusal was that he has no enough funds for visit to apply for skilled he will need funds not so?.
