What the petition asks
At the moment elderly parents of Indian origin British Nationals who wants to travel to UK on family visit visa has to submit a long lists of documents and ever changing visa rules . Moreover as VFS is not available in small towns they have to often travel to long distance to apply for visa .
My parents lives in Patna and every time they hate to apply for family visit visa , firstly the fees is keep increasing and secondly they have to travel overnight to Kolkata to be present physically for an application . Our request is to first minimise the costs as they are the parents of British tax payers moreover the application system has to be online with minimum basic documents required .
