Re: [OT] need a sponsor for my parens
Hi,
and just for the minutes, you need the same kind of "sponsor" letter if
you want to invite visa-foreigners to the European Union (at least for
France
and Germany, but I think it's general), where you basically engage
yourself as if they were your own children (pay for what ever wrong they
could do, or however sick they could become). I had to do this recently
for someone from ex-Yougoslavia (I asked her to have all the required
insurances to lower my risk, as a tip).
Cheers, Eric
PS: sorry for the off-topic, but some people are always thinking that
foreigners are so free to "invade" the good western countries.
