My girlfriend is applying for a TRV for two months, and the application asks for proof of relationship. We're not married of course so no official document exists. Would the Letter of Invitation be enough? Or should we upload some pictures of us together? Both the Letter of Invitation and Proof of Relationship are listed as required on the online application.

Thanks

"Proof of relationship" only applies to family members... how did you generate the checklist? what was the relationship that you stated in the tool?

The viable options we saw in the tool were "visit as a tourist" and "visit family and/or friends". Went for the latter. Didnt ask for the kind of relationship, just whether we could provide proof of relationship. It said a letter of invitation would be okay but in the checklist of documents to upload it lists proof of relationship and letter of invitation as two separate things. Do you think its fine to upload the lettet of invitation twice, once for each category? Also tried changing the profile to "visit as a tourist" and that removes proof of relationship AND the letter of invitation as requirements. What do you think?

Thanks a lot

Do not upload twice the documents, do not be redundant.

You should have evidence that person is your friend, for example pictures of previous encounters, trips together, etc. Submit that.
