Re: Absolutely Crushed, someone please help me!

How long has he been on the dole? When does he intend to go off? He will not be able to sponsor you so long as he's on benefits.

Do you know what the most common cause of...

Re: Absolutely Crushed, someone please help me!

How would he lose his house?

Is he living with his mum and she owns/rents the house?

Is he renting a house of his own? Is it a council house?

Re: Absolutely Crushed, someone please help me!

If he has an electrical engineering degree.... is he a sparky? (he'd know the answer)

They get paid very well so unless he's chronically out of a job, I think he should pay for your ticket...

Re: Absolutely Crushed, someone please help me!

What does he do in the UK? Out of curiosity if you don't mind sharing?

Re: Absolutely Crushed, someone please help me!

You need to give it some time.

The US absolutely will not recognise any sponsor as a hedge against overstay. I imagine the UK is the same. I'd ensure that you have a job to return to and that...

Re: Absolutely Crushed, someone please help me!

There is no work holiday visa for Americans in the UK or vice versa. And that's largely an American policy decision (don't blame the Brits! these things have to work both ways and the US has no work...

Re: Absolutely Crushed, someone please help me!

Calm down and have a deep breath....
