2. Nowadays letter of sponsorship need to be notary attested? No
3. As my parents came here once in 2016, can i apply for 2 years visitors visa as they have strong connections to the home country. You can try it, nothing stops them from applying for a visa length exceeding 6months as per forum members experiences.
ThankS

Evidence of strong ties to home country, financial evidence like bank account statements etc.
Read through the forum for more ideas.

This weakens their visit visa application.

You will need to demonstrate that they have a stronger connection to their country of habitual residence than both their children living here.

Are either of the parents employed? That would help the case as it is easier to demonstrate that they have to return to a job.
