Please check my sponsor letter for my US girlfriend

Upvote:5

I personally think your letter is a bit too verbose and may work against you; a sponsor letter should state the following:

  1. Your details and status in the UK, and evidence thereof. For example, if you are a UK citizen, your passport details and copy.

  2. Where the visitor will be staying. If staying with you, evidence that such an arrangement is allowed. For example, you can provide a deed to your house, or rental agreement showing that you are authorized to live at that address, etc. If you are living with your parents, then their details should also be included.

  3. Evidence of your ability to financially bear the cost and not have it be a burden. This would usually mean salary or bank statements showing income - in your case I am not sure if your parents will also be contributing (financially) towards the costs if so they should also provide their details.

  4. The details of the sponsored party, such as their full legal name, and possibly passport copy as well.

  5. The nature of your relationship.

  6. Their itinerary (arrival / departure details) - ideally with a copy of the return ticket if available.

You should not include the following:

  1. An assurances and guarantees on your part (above and beyond the financial costs); simply because these are ineffective.

  2. Any justifications (such as why she would go back) - this is part of the landing interview that the Border Force officer will do and it may sound like you are doing this on her behalf.

  3. Any irrelevant personal details; such as your disability, etc. these are seen as superfluous and may be seen as a distraction to hide or misrepresent something else; unless material to the nature of the visit. She is visiting you and together you are going to tour the country. The fact that your disability makes the trip longer does not have a bearing on the granting of entry.
