Need advice

PR you mean you had ILR ? or you had PR from being married to a EEA national (family permit) ?

yes you would lose ILR if you had been outside the UK more than 2yrs, but it would be possible to regain it if you could show you had strong ties to the UK (eg family members lived here)

difficult to get a work permit now, but to get a visit visa, you would have to show you have good reasons to go back to your home country before your visa expires, also you have the funds for your stay, but getting a visit visa is a lottery.

who knows what your chances are, difficult to say, but its always worth trying, but prepare your visa app well and have good evidence

Thank you. Is it difficult to obtain a visitor visa?I have not intention to stay in UK more than the intended time.I do have my own savings.Yes, I did have ILR but lost it because I have been away more than 2 years .Also , I still have bank account inUK that i need to sort out. Can anyone help me as to how to prepare my application?My friend whom I am going to stay with is willing to send me a letter and also pages of her passport and ILR stamp.How much I supposed to take with me for 4 to 6 weeks stay?
Is two thousands pounds enough bearing in mind I have food and accomodation provided for.I am just thinking what are the reason for refusal?I have a job to return to after my holiday. And I know is not easy to get work in uK so I am not going there to work .
