Is the Air ticket mandatory to attach now? It should be done after the visa getting approved right?
plus
(these are only suggestions)
tax return(if you have)
ca report for property evaluation
bank statements
your job letter
your mother's job letter and noc from employer(if working)
her bank statement
any property
any other strong reason for her to go back
It is strongly suggested that you attach the return ticket as well, Visa Officer needs to be convinced that the visitor will return after the visit. Just my 2 cents
Just asking,
But how should we invest in tickets if we are not even certain we will have the visa? And even if we do have it, we can’t even know the month or even year in which they will send it.
No, you don't have to...your overall application should be strong, booking return ticket is not a strong evidence that you'll return since the visa officer knows that anyone can cancel the tickets.
Is this for spouse or parent?
I also applied for TRV on same date Oct 10 for my spouse on the new portal. Biometrics already completed with old application via GC key. No update as yet. Eligibility check not started yet. Will keep you posted.
