Would you be responsible for meeting his travel, stay and food costs etc.?jp70 wrote:I would like to get a visitor visa for my friend to visit in the UK for one week. I have a full time job (£900/month after tax) but I have loans and my bank account is below zero (-£600). But I have about £200 extra money after all bills and loand payments so I can support my friend. But are my loans and overdrafts a problem for a visitor visa application? Do I need to get my bank account first positive? How much?
Yes. Obviously I ll wait untill I really have the money. But even then my account might be on overdraft.push wrote:Would you be responsible for meeting his travel, stay and food costs etc.?jp70 wrote:I would like to get a visitor visa for my friend to visit in the UK for one week.

Ok, looks good. This is what I actually wanted also, to take responsible that my friend does not use benefits etc. I am ready to take that responsible/risk (as I know her well enough to take it). So good to know this option is there. Well done ukba hereeldane wrote:It may be easier for your visitor if you sign a "sponsorship undertaking form."
The ECO may regard you are more serious in sponsoring your visitor in that you voluntarily has been proactive and sought out your responsibilities as a sponsor.

OUr first was also refused year ago. I visit her after that. Now trying again to the UK. Now I have better situation bce I have full time work.eldane wrote:JP70,
I am in the same boat as you. Casa has a very valid point and I can confirm it is paramount that the applicant has strong ties to her home country and is financially capable of meeting the expenses.
I had an ex girlfriend who, despite I accepted all expenses, paid tickets etc., was refused her visa.
