What are my realistic chances as a parent from India?ShowHide
Low. The Home Office refuses most applications because it finds paid care is available in India. Cases that succeed usually involve dementia, severe disability or conditions needing a family member rather than a paid carer, with years of medical records. We will tell you honestly before you pay £3,635.
Does my son or daughter's income help?ShowHide
Only for the maintenance test. For the care test it works against you: if they can afford a carer in India, the rule says care is affordable there. The question is whether suitable care exists at all, not whether they would rather you lived with them.
Can I apply from inside the UK after arriving as a visitor?ShowHide
No. The rules require an application from outside the UK. Applying in-country is refused, and overstaying to do so damages every future application.
