Differences between tourist, student, and work visa reports

Each category weighs different evidence — ties and funds for tourism, enrolment for study, sponsorship for work.

HeyVisa adapts its analysis to the category you choose, because reviewers weigh different evidence for each.

  • Tourist: ties to your home country, funds, and a coherent itinerary.
  • Student: enrolment, funding for tuition and living, and academic intent.
  • Work: a sponsor or contract, qualifications, and the right permit.
