I would like to apply for a visitor visa for 6 moth.

Can some one tell me how could I obtain such visa.
And can some one advise me if I must provide proof of my accommodation during my stay, as I will be there for 6 month (thats a lot of time) and I will be in different places.

Do I have to provide evidence of my accommodation? or the bank statement will be enough?

And I want to ask, could I apply for another VISA after my visit visa, I will apply for a tier 4 visa after my visit, and start uni on September 2016.

and also, should I pre book airline tickets before I apply to the visit visa?

Thank you in advance.

Hey, yes you do need an accommodation proof for your visa application. Pre-booking airline is the way to proof that you're flying there to the country as a supporting doc for the visa, so yes.

Hope that helps

Hi Everyone

I thought I would ask my question on this thread, rather than starting a new one.

I would like my girlfriend to visit me in the United Kingdom. She is Vietnamese. Ideally she would come on a tourist visa. Does anyone know how much money she needs to have in order to get a tourist visa? I'm not talking about the cost of the visa itself. I'm talking about the money to prove she has 'sufficient funds' to support herself and get a flight home.

If she had $10,000.00 in her bank account would that be enough? She doesn't own any property and her job isn't well paid.

Thanks in advance.
