Applying for a visit visa to the UK from Pakistan

[gkb101277867]

My aunty recently had her application rejected and she still doesn't understand why.

She is upper middle class and is married with 3 kids. She also had a middle class sponsor in the UK. She was not given a reason for the rejection either

Has anyone here been successful or know of anyone who was successful with such an application. Any tips on what to include etc to increase chances?

The applicant has to prove strong ties , to show they would return back. There is not any hard and fast rules for that , but ties could include , marriage , children , Solid Job , property etc.

Generally they do not issue visit visa to everyone , end of the day it is there discretion , so nothing much can be done.

My Grandmother used to visit regularly, never had an issue.

It may not even be anything wrong with her application. Sometimes they may feel too many people have been given visa in recent times. Of course your aunty wouldn't but so many come over as visitors or students and never return. Unfortunately this costs the genuine ones.
