I guess this is a good place to ask.
So my friend wants to visit the UK for a week. She lives in Belarus so obviously needs a visa. Is there anything I can do to help her get one, or is it a pretty standard affair or her just walking into the visa office and them giving her a tourist visa? Someone mentioned to me that you can send a sponsorship letter which they can use in getting a visa. I dunno any of this so thought I'd ask here. Maybe someone can tell me what's what.
