How Do I Go About Inviting Sister & Child To The Uk? by OmoAlata(f): 11:49am On Oct 01, 2010 |
My sis lives in Nigeria. She has a 1 year old daughter. Her partner (they weren't married) has decided to call time on their relationship. I want her (& her daughter) to start a new life over here in the UK. How do I go about it please? Thanks Ps. And before anyone says "how did you get to the UK"; "You should know the procedure", blah! blah!! Blah!!!, I was born here so didn't go through all that rigmarole. When I invited my husband over, he was living in Ghana, it was a settlement/spousal visa and he was given it on that basis so only bought a one-way ticket As you can see, my sister's case is clearly different. On what terms would I invite her over and would she be able to reside here? Thanks again. |

You stated that she has a child, so, she is most likely older than the acceptable age for a Dependant. Therefore, she would not be eligible for any migrant scheme except you provide her with skilled employment by which she would be migrating as a skilled worker. If this is out of the question, i'm afraid the only way you can invite her in is as a family visitor which does not entitle her to reside in the UK except you don't mind her breaching the visa conditions by becoming illegal resident. |

Thank you. Much appreciated. Yes, she is an adult (born 1978). OK. I'll invite her to visit for a couple of months to clear her head then go back |
