Visitor Visa - Agriculture

[damGC]

I am planning to bring my mother-in-law and father-in-law on a visitor visa. He does agriculture but never filed an income tax as the income was within the limits.

I have heard about some cases where the visa was rejected as the taxes were not filed. How can we overcome this situation? Please advise.

I Thank you for the help!

Consular officers know that people with agriculture income only do not have pay taxes or file taxes. That is no problem.

Hi all,
My father was working in middle east(Muscat) for the past 10 years and returned to India by mid May 2005. So he hasn't filed any income tax. What shud we do now?? Please help.

SHAKTHI_80, your father didn't file income tax in India, or Muscat? Being in Muscat for 10 years, I'm sure he must have filed income tax there. In such a case it was ok to not have filed it in India (provided there's a double taxation avoidance treaty between Muscat and India). So provide copy of tax return from wherever it was filed.
