But how the papers are checked is very local matter: local consulate offices will know much better the documents one could expect from local people (and to do ev. some quick background checks). your question lacks of such details (where your friend is living), but still, with details, we probably lack of local knowledge. Do no try to turn around rules, it would look like insincere. Just tell the consulate the truth (and so that they can verify it). | |
