I don’t know from where and to where, what passport she has etc. but in general, it is always an option to book a 100% refundable ticket back and cancel it after immigration

Sorry didn’t mention, she will be coming to London, UK from Qatar and holds an Indian passport. Hmm thinks it’s best to be in the safe side then
It will cause issues depending on where you live and where she’s from. In the U.S. it would be required or they’d turn her away; but based on your use of “mum” I suspect you might not be from the U.S. so it’s hard to say without knowing more. Every country has different laws and visa requirements.
My MIL from South Africa stays with us 6 months on, 6 months off to help with our kids and has a 10yr tourist visa that permits her to do that, but she’s been interrogated at the airport about her plans. She always has her return flight scheduled and knows not to exceed 6 months or come back sooner. But we consulted a lawyer first.

Sorry forgot to mention, she will be flying to London, UK from Qatar and holds an Indian passport. I don’t think I should risk it in that case, wouldn’t want to deal with any issues closer to my due date!
im not sure if this can still be done but what we used to do before is book a ticket back - print the itinerary and then cancel it to get the refund. Worked for me so i have something to show immigration but not sure if they are stricter now
