Hi All
Hopefully someone can advise me
Next week, my friend is visiting from Paraguay. Apparently Paraguay is not a country where you can apply for a tourist visa before getting to the UK
He plans to visit me for 3 weeks. He is a student, 24 years old, first time traveller with a new passport. He has a return ticket, he will have a letter from me to say i will accomodate and support him, he will bring a letter from his university to show he is enrolled as a student (ie he must return to finish his course) and he has around £550 / $900USD in cash (he cannot bring bank statements because he cannot get an account as a student who doesnt have a job and therefore he also wont have a credit card)
Should all this be enough for immigration to believe his is not wanting to stay illegally and issue him the tourist visa?
Should he provide any more information with him?
Thanks
