Help On Sponsorship Topic Tier 4 for Girlfriend?

Post by theboycj1 » Thu May 12, 2011 10:52 pm

Hi,

I am looking for information on what is the best way to get my Serbian (non EU) girlfriend to the UK for a 6 month - 1 year period.

I am a UK citizen and my gf is keen to take up an english course at a tier 4 sponsor whilst she completes her IELTS and prepares to apply for a scholarship.

However the UK Border Agency states you need the course fees in your bank account and £600 of income a month to support living costs.

My girlfriend will be coming to live with me and I will pay for her living costs and am in a steady and secure job with full time employment but am relatively short on savings! but not sure if I need to show anything???

Is there an easy alternative to this that I am unaware of??? Can anyone please advise?!

Extremely stuck at the moment!!

Thanks

What all requirements one must meet to apply for leave as a Tier 4 migrant are explained in the Tier 4 policy guidance. Have a read and come back with specific questions, if you have any.

Read para 151 of the Tier 4 policy guidance.

Life isn't fair, but you can be!
