Hello Dear members,

Need some suggestions for my brother Visit Visa application.

- My Brother is planning to apply for Visit Visa. He is by profession a doctor. employed in a hospital living with our parents (parents Visit Visa approved until 2026).

Qs. Can he use our father Bank Statement with an affidavit from our father that he will support my brother and cover his expense for his 3 week stay?
challenge is my Parents used same account for their Visit Visa will this impact the Visa decision?
My brother has his own bank account but he has not much savings in his account to support himself for this trip.

Will appreciate your valuable suggestions and advice.

He needs to show his own funds and ties to his home country.

Thank you canuck78 for the advice. appreciated . Follow up, if he don't have funds to cover his expense can he show father funds as backup? or you think this will not be helpful to support his visit visa application?

He really needs to show his own funds since he is an adult and employed. If he was a minor then it would be fine to show his father's funds.

Here's a quick guide to help you determine this:

  1. Create a travel itinerary outlining your daily expenses, including accommodation, food, and other costs.
  2. Calculate the total cost for each day and then multiply that amount by 14 (for the 2-week stay).
  3. Add the cost of your flight tickets (both inbound and outbound) to this total.
After calculating the total expenses, ensure that you still retain at least 65% of your funds. This means you should not spend more than 35% of your available funds on the entire trip. For example, if you have $100, your total travel expenses should not exceed $35.

Hope this helps !
