Hello everyone,

So I got my visa 2 weeks ago but my initial travel date has long passed as I was supposed to travel in October but the passport was not returned on time. Now I'm thinking of spending the Chrtismas and New Year celebrations in the UK but I have some fears and/or concerns and they are as follows:

1. Can my family (partner and kids) apply for a UK visitor's visa for the purpose of going together with me for tourism, whilst attaching a copy of my passport data page and recent UK visitor's visa? Or MUST they be invited by someone in the U.K before it would look credible?

2. Wouldn't the ECO think this is an afterthought or is there anything wrong with having a different plan along the line from the initial plan of going alone since the visa did not come out on time against the backdrop of my initial travel plans?

Gurus is the house should please advise if this is a wrong move or if I should go first on my own and apply for them later when I want to renew. Thanks in anticipation of your responses.

Hello House...How's everyone....please who has flown Egypt Air recently to the UK. I need to get to the UK for a few days and it's looks like the cheapest but the layover is not here at all.
Do they provide accommodation?
How are their planes as well?

If there are other things you need to declare to support your application, like assets, you can put it to.
Also you don’t need to explain your budget. I did in my own.

1. Yes, your family can apply and they don't need anybody to invite them just list resort centers you will like to visit.

2. The ECO won't think otherwise, they are after your money and strong ties back home.

Response is based on personal experience.

1. No. Don’t use company letter, because it’s not the company applying.

2. Thé cover letter is for you to tell the ECO what you want him/her to know about you that you think will help your application. Most importantly, INCOME and TIES to home country.

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by cutebear: 7:19pm On Nov 19, 2021
Since it’s your personal introduction letter, there’s no need for letter head because it’s not an official introduction letter. Even if you’re self employed, you’re the one requesting for visa. It’s not like your company is sending you on an official trip or something. You’re the one just writing and signing by yourself.
Usually, people get letters from their office introducing them.
