a cover letter and a sponsor letter !!?
i've only ever used one letter, a sponsor letter, which i've always done the same,
dear sir/madam
this is a letter of support for xxxxx my wife etc, who is currently applying for xxxx visa, I'm pleased to be the principal sponsor, while my dog will co-sponsor the application. In this letter i hope to cover the main points required to obtain the xxx visa for her/him.
paragraphs headed
circumstances of meeting -
i have known my wife for .. blah blah.., married for ... blah. please see evidence of this and that....
financial position -
iam employed in a secure job get paid xxx, find attached pay slips, p60, letter from employer, contract, dna sample
i have substantial savings, see bank statements etc...
our budget is ... elec, gas, water, rent,,
iam studying for a OU degree to further increase my wage., more blah's
i have also included my wife's job details,( as above) when she applied for FLR and ILR as she was working here in uk,
our accommodation in the uk-
our accommodation is a large xxx, that we own/rent/live with, ( co-sonsors letter of support if needed), land reg docs and certified copy of deeds etc,
accommodation is large enough for us all,. blah. blah..
our relationship at present-
been married for x years, strong and serious commitment, blah, blah
having already sponsored my wife for settlement/flr etc. i am familiar with role and obligations of visa sponsorship and of home office expectations in this undertaking, and its realistic that my wife would never need recourse to funds funds, and if we ever faced major financial difficulties my mother/family/ cat or dog would provide assistance so no recourse to public funds would ever be neccessary.. blah, blah
I hope the facts and evidence provided enables you to grant xxxxx with a xxx visa.
thank you for your consideration
your faithfully
