|
|
| Hi all, I'm a HK Chinese who would like to apply for a TOURIST VISA for my boyfriend from Lao PDR to come to Hong Kong the end of 2007 for a few weeks. We have tried Chinese Embassies in Vietnam and Bangkok while traveling and wasn't able to get anywhere with the officials even when all the forms were correctly filled out. We are both self-employed. I myself own a web design company and have been working and living between HK and the States for the last 10 years (due citizenship). He owns a travel agency, restaurant and hotel in Laos and have no intention to move to Hong Kong. Would our employment status be a problem? Is it necessary to get official letters to prove his work in Lao and that he will return to his country after the visit? Is there a need for me to act as his sponsor even for a tourist visa? Would it be easier for me to apply for him in person at the Immigration Department in Hong Kong? We do plan to marry in the future. Any suggestions and assistance are greatly appreciated. |
