This is for online visa submission. Folks who have experience submitting online visitor visa, please respond urgently..

(1) I would be the unpaid representative applying visa for my parents. Do I have to create an account for myself or i have to create account on behalf of my father and apply as if my father is applying online?

(2) My parents dont have a marriage certificate. Would that be a problem?

(3) My father has a business, so i would mention "Yes" for "have business" dropdown. Should i choose "have job" as Y or N?

(4) I would be the financial sponsor for my family. I am confused as there are two documents they are asking to upload "Proof of Financial Resource of Supporter (required)" AND "Proof of Means of Financial Support (required)"


Even if you know answer for a few, please do reply, it would be immensely be useful

Depends on what you want to do. Only you can tell.

How do you plan to prove they are married? How do they usually prove that?

Only you can answer that. Does he have a job?

Some people only have a buisness, but it is run by someone else. No job.
Some people have a buisness and work on that buisness, so they have a job.

You being their sponsor answers for "Proof of Financial Resource of Supporter (required)"

Their OWN means of support asnwer for "Proof of Means of Financial Support (required)"

They have to show CIC that they can support themselves while on the trip, EVEN THOUGH you are sponsoring them. Your proof of funds is secondary to THEIR proof of funds.
