Parents/GrandParents Visa - Income Requirements

[shamchi]

Hi All,

May be this question has been asked before and I am asking it very close to the opening of PGP 2019. I would like to sponsor my father. I am little short of income requirement for 2016 and 2017. In 2018 I got a better job and meet the requirements. Can someone suggest if I should apply for my father this year ? logically income requirement should be considered when the application approves.

I would really appreciate for your suggestions.

You cannot apply this year since you have not met the income requirement. If you try and apply, they will not refund the fees and send you application back. Wait until you have 3 years of eligible income, the rest of us have.
