@fgs I understand. I've read something about the bond as well. But I don't think we need to go there, especially that I can't even tell the difference between the two.
I've been reading about a 'Statutory Declaration' document in this forum, which is basically the invitation letter you're talking about, but on a more 'legitimized' level as it's notarized and all. Do you know anything about it? And is this required instead of just a regular invitation letter? I'm so confused lol
Found it in a document checklist:
<blockquote class="Quote">If a friend/relative in Australia is paying for your visit then a <b class="Bold">Statutory Declaration</b> stating the relative or friend’s support and evidence of their financial capacity to do so – for example a letter of invitation, bank statements and tax documents.</blockquote>
thank you so much!
