The only way will be if you are the one to create the account for them, fill form and upload documents on their behalf I.e. more or less manage the application process for said relative.uhd4k wrote: ↑Sat Dec 30, 2023 1:42 amHello,
I am planning on sponsoring a relative to come for a short break -visitor visa. I am not keen on giving my employment and bank details to the relative as that is personal and sensitive, especially documents with £ figures. Is there a way to send such documents directly to the immigration advisor looking after the case? I know this is possible in other countries but could not find anything for the UK.
Thanks.
If there is any document for applicant to sign or provide in hardcopy e.g. appointment proof or any of such, download and send to their email, if any they need to be uploaded, they scan and send to your email.
Makes sense. Many thanks!AmazonianX wrote: ↑Sat Dec 30, 2023 2:57 pmIf there is any document for applicant to sign or provide in hardcopy e.g. appointment proof or any of such, download and send to their email, if any they need to be uploaded, they scan and send to your email.
You may have been caught in the word's definition, but sponsorship does exist, and it is about sponsoring someone and not the visa of someone. I already used it previously and here is a formal link that explains it: https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... -a-sponsorzimba wrote: ↑Sun Dec 31, 2023 3:55 amThere is no such thing as sponsorship or inviting someone here under the UK immigration rules for a standard visit visa. You cannot sponsor anyone as a visitor to the UK. Your family members or relatives are expected to satisfy the visa officers on their own when applying for a visit visa. They can claim that they are going to visit family (you) and provide your details but this not an act of sponsoring their visa
Technically yes, but! it does not mean that your circumstances are ignored.
So despote your fatehr sponsoring you, you still need to show you have money and reasons to return back to your home country.. I have acknowledged that your sponsor in the UK are willing to provide adequate support for a limited visit to the United Kingdom; however it is
your circumstances and intentions which are paramount in assessing your application.
You're 100% right. The sponsorship covers some aspects but not all. There is more to the application than a sponsorship. The guarantee of not overstaying is a big one, and that is proven by what the visitor does and has back in their country.meself2 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 31, 2023 1:04 pmTechnically yes, but! it does not mean that your circumstances are ignored.
See example from a visa refusal ( post2115188.html#p2115188 ):So despote your fatehr sponsoring you, you still need to show you have money and reasons to return back to your home country..

The term 'sponsor' there is used to mean 'providing a place of stay and financial support during someone's visit'. I wanted to emphasise that onus is still on the applicant to prove that they will return after the visituhd4k wrote: ↑Sun Dec 31, 2023 12:08 pmYou may have been caught in the word's definition, but sponsorship does exist, and it is about sponsoring someone and not the visa of someone.
