Let your mom apply alone in Feb., your dad not getting any pension may be the reason for denial. They will ask her why he is not applying and she can say , he is dejected by the denial and does not wish to go now. That way he will act as a tie for her come back to and increase the chances.
She should ask for a short stay of 2-3 months.

Once she has made a trip, your dad can apply later in 2007. When he applies, he should show some occupational activity and source of income in INdia like a small business or a small job which he can establish during the year.
