Hi Nyaradz0

I really think the info you need is beyond most members experiences. Perhaps your mother could seek advice from a visa specialist in Zimbabwe.

The information I could see on the UKBA website suggests a family visit cannot be for longer than 6 months, and I'm not sure if it can be used for visiting someone who is not a British Citizen. Also, if applying for a general visa for longer than 6 months, your mother would need to provide proof that she is free of TB coming from Zimbabwe.

She can apply for a family visitor visa:

She won't be able to stay longer than 6 months.
