hi everyone. i thought i share some badnews my ladyfriend has had and would like some advice and thoughts on what to do for the best.

my ladyfreind applied for a tourist visa to vist me and today they got back and it has been refused, the reason being 2 years ago she came to uk to visit her chinese friend whos married to british guy (they had a baby) her first visa was for 10 days but she stayed for over 2 months! now shes applied for her 2nd tourist visa and its been refused. i think from what she said they the immigration think she was working but she was not she was staying with her friend as the baby was almost due and her friend wanted her to stay, i think by talking to her she did not really understand that she had to be gone within the 10 days

she has rang up the visa agency and told them of the refusal and they told her she can apply for a visit visa to come to the uk. i understand that i will have to invite her but what else are the requirements of this visa for me as a sponsor. she is also worried that her tourist visa refusal will look bad when we eventually apply for the fiancee and marriage visa

on a good note she did the english exam i think its the A1 and she passed it .
many thanks
