approved. We originally tried for 6 months and got knocked back. We then tried for 1 month and it was approved in 6 days.
I actually went to Bali last week to sort it out and we have been told that the Balinese person
* needs $1000 per month ($30 per day) in their bank account not yours.
* You need to give letter of invitation
* Their passport
* Family/identity card
* Letter from current employer saying that they are on leave and will return to their job
* It also helps to send a copy of your bank statement, passport and tax return.
Good luck
