[ 主持人 ]: 各位网友大家好!英国一直是中国学生出国留学的热点国家,近几年留学英国的中国学生的数量不断增加,而关于留学英国的一些政策都是各位网友所关心的。今天我们非常荣幸地请到了英国驻广州总领事馆签证处签证官员 Andrew 回答大家在申请留学签证中遇到的各种困难。欢迎大家积极提问。 14:31:41
[ 主持人 ]: 大家可以自由提问。我会把你们的问题粘贴在网上 ,Andrew 会一一回答的。 14:50:58
[ 签证官 ]:Hello, my name is Andrew. I am an Entry Clearance Officer working in the Visa Section of the British Consulate General in Guangzhou. I will do my best to answer as many of your questions as possible 14:51:26
(大家好,我叫 Andrew ,我是英国驻广州总领事馆签证处的签证官员,我会尽我所能回答大家尽可能多的问题。)
[ 主持人 ]: 很多学生在申请签证时会有很多不同的疑问,尤其是经济材料的问题。欢迎你们问这个方面的问题。 14:57:47
[ 签证官 ]:Regarding funding firstly you need to decide who will be paying for your studies. This person is your “sponsor”. You can have more than one sponsor. Normally a sponsor will be your parent but actually anybody can be your sponsor. You should submit as much evidence as possible of your sponsor’s financial and economic circumstances to show that he/she has the means to meet the costs of your studies. This evidence might be evidence of their employment such as an employment letter, salary book, tax documents, bankbooks, bank statements, property certificates. Really the list is endless. Anything that shows your sponsors financial and economic circumstances is acceptable. 15:02:20
(关于经济来源的问题,你必须决定谁将支付你的学习费用,这个人就是你的 “ 资助人 ” 。 你可以有多个资助人。通常,这个人会是你的父母,但实际上谁都可以是你的资助人。你必须提交尽可能多的证据来证明你的资助人的财务和经济状况,以拥有足够资金来支持你在英国留学的费用。这个证明可以是雇佣信,工资单,税务资料,银行存款,财产证明等等,其实这个清单是列不完的,只要可以证明你的资助人的财务和经济状况就可以了。)
[ 主持人 ]: 现在是 suryamin 提出的问题:“Andrew, 我在台湾长大,拿的是印尼的护照,但从来没有回去过印尼,请问我如何证明没有移民英国的意图呢?谢谢! ”15:03:05
[ 签证官 ]:Suryamin - would you be applying as a student and if so what sort of course are you considering? 15:05:11
( Suryamin ,你是要申请学生签证吗?如果是,你想申请什么课程呢?)
[ 主持人 ]:suryamin 回答 Andrew :“是的,想去英国读博士。 ” 15:06:21
[ 签证官 ]:Dear Suryamin – PHDs are normally long courses and there would be legitimate avenues that would subsequently allow you to remain in the UK should you wish to do so. If you satisfy us that you genuinely intend to pursue these studies and can meet the cost you would not have to satisfy us that you intend to leave the UK on completion of those studies. 15:10:44
( Suryamin ,完成博士学位通常需要比较长的时间,如果你希望之后继续留在英国,也有合法的途径。如果你能让我们信服你是真正去完成你的学业,并有足够支持你完成该学业的费用,那么你并不一定要向我们证明你在完成学业之后会离开英国。)
[ 主持人 ]: 有一位叫做 Maggie 的网友等了很长时间,现在是她的问题: ” 英国领事馆是否接受由银行证明的美金存款合同? 美金存款只是一个证明合同而不是存款单,大使馆会接受吗? ”15:11:26
[ 签证官 ]:We would accept such agreements but would need to assess whether the person paying for the studies is genuinely in a position to meet the costs of the proposed studies. Therefore if your costs will be met by a sponsor you should still submit evidence of your sponsor’s own financial and economic circumstances. If money has been recently deposited you should provide evidence if possible of where it has come from so that we can see that it really belongs to you or your sponsor and is genuinely available for your studies. 15:15:19
(我们会接受这种证明,但是会进一步评估这个支付学费的人是否真的有能力负担该费用。因此如果你的资助人能负担你的费用,你仍须提供你的资助人本身的财务经济证明。如果钱是刚刚存进银行账户的话,你则必须提供这笔钱的来源证明,以便我们可以知道这笔钱真的是你或者你的资助人的,并且是真正用来支付你的学费的。)
[ 主持人 ]: 我们的网友 Feren0521 有另外一个问题: “ 如果我的资金大部分是出租房子得来的,除了出租文件之外,我是否还要提供我父母的工作证明来证明他们怎样购买这些房子?谢谢! 15:15:23
[ 签证官 ]:This really depends on how long they have owned those houses. If they have only recently come into their possession it would be advisable to show how they got them. Assuming they have had the properties for some time I would advise submitting evidence of their ownership and evidence of the money obtained in rent such as rental contracts etc. If that money is deposited into a bank account it would make sense to submit evidence of that account too. I would still recommend submitting other evidence of your parents’ finances such as evidence of their employment and income from it because the more evidence you submit the better the Entry Clearance Officer is placed to make the correct decision. 15:19:54
(这需要看他们拥有这些房子的时间长短而定。如果这是他们是刚刚获得的财产,建议让我们知道他们是如何得到的。假设他们拥有这些资产一段时间了,我建议提供他们的拥有权的证明,以及可以证明他们获得租金的证据如租赁合同等。如果得到的钱被存入银行账户,这也可以当作一个证明。此外,我还是建议提供你父母的工作证明和收入证明。因为提供的证明越多,就越能让签证处官员做出正确的决定。)
