I am currently looking into the information needed for my boyfriend to get a holiday visa to the UK in June. I am going to see him in May and we are going to fill out the forms needed and then we're hoping he will be able to come to England the end of June if it goes well, if not, then later in the Summer. We will be applying for a general visitor visa that lasts for 6 months and he's hoping to come a couple of times in the 6 months.
It says it helps for me to sponsor him and that I need to write a letter stating my relationship to him, the purpose of the visit and where he will stay.
I was just wondering if anyone has done one of these and how to word it, I want to do it right so I can give him the best chance of being successful.
We are planning on going to a few different places during his visit and I will probably help him out a little with money. He will pay for his flights and most of the accommodation to it will just be days out etc I will help with. On the UK border agency site it says if you are helping financially with their trip or they are staying with you you should show copies of your bank statements and payslips OR a copy of your savings book. I was just wondering which would be the best for me to do. I am self employed so I dont have payslips and I have quite a bit saved so would this be the best copies to show?!
Any advice would be gratefully received! Its so hard to even get a holiday visa, I dread sorting out the settlement visa if we get that far!
