Hi,
I have a friend in Atlanta who wishes to visit the UK for a year having just graduated. I am happy for her to live with me and help out around the house in exchange for her keep. She will not being doing any employed paid work except me giving her some pocket money every now and then.
Would it be easier if I say she is going to be an au pair?
What kind of visa does she need to apply for and do you have any advice as to how to make a successful application?
I am happy to be a sponsor if need be but again am not sure what this means or entails.
Any assistance would be greatly received. Thanks very much
