How you arrange visa for boy to come to Europe

[cdnmatt]

Can't speak for Western Europe, but I would imagine it's close to Canada. Two big hurdles:

1.) He needs to prove financial means to support himself. Not sure about Europe, but for Canada, this means money in his bank account. Having a sponsor who promises to take care of you helps, but isn't enough. The government needs to know even if things don't go as planned, he can still financially support himself if he ends up alone. Thankfully this isn't a problem for me as I'd have no problem entrusting Leo with $15k in his bank account, but for others it may be an issue.

2.) You need to make the government believe he's going to return to his home country, so he has to show he has a life to return to. Sucking foreigners dicks in the upstairs short-time room of a go-go bar for $50 isn't really much of a reason to return, so you might be screwed there. This is also the main difficulty in getting Leo a visitor VISA. He has no home, car, kids, nothing. He's got about $2000 in his account, and some 40 baht/hour job. Not much of a reason to return.

Sounds like you're just looking to bring them over for a quick vacation, right? So I'm guessing a stufy VISA is out, but that's a good way to get them in, at least in Canada. Probably of no use to you, but might be to others, s:

Practice entrance exams that mainly test English and math skills, and sound as though they're used by many colleges throughout North America. Leo and myself are looking into that, maybe move to Canmore and he can study at Bow Valley, which would be perfect for us. Beautiful small town in the mountains, and Bow Valley is basically an immigrant college -- teaches advanced English, and the necessary high school courses to get him a Canadian high school diploma, so he can go on to college / university in Canada.

I think you're going to have a rough time getting someone in under a tourist VISA though, but good luck!

Thank you. I think so too it is not easy. I intended it indeed for a short vacation. But I see sometimes farang with their boy in Europe and I always wonder how they arranged the visa.

So they fake that he is going to study and get a study visa for him, but the boy never really does that study?

No, that's impossible,at least in Canada. There is no faking it. You first have to be accepted via entrance exams, which at least here test for English and Math. If you get accepted, then tuition payment is needed in full. Once accepted and tuition is paid, then you get a latter from the government accredited school that you can use for a VISA.

From the sounds of things though, don't listen to me at all. I'm going off Canada law, and obviously from the responses, EU law is totally different and much more liberal. May want to contact an immigration lawyer in your home country, and get a quick consultation.

I don't know about Europe, but I do know full well in Canada it's nowhere near as easy as saying, "I like him, and he can stay with me", and then he gets a VISA. Just simply not how it works.

Hmmm. I must be reading the information on this site wrong. It says I can go to Canada to learn English https://www.preparationcoursesportal...or-canada.html
