I've no idea from where you get the form, but you have to question its necessity. If they are now asking for such a form, it smacks of a realisation that the snide checks that thay've previously been undertaking are unlawful.

The essence is that nothing has to be proven: only demonstrated to the balance of probabilities. There is a question on the VAF2 which asks whether the sponsor is in receipt of pubilc funds. Why do they now feel the need to ask for what seems to be an additional release form? Even if the sponsor is in receipt of public funds, that does not preclude the visa applicant from qualifying for the settlement visa.

We live in worrying times. Don't let the nouveaux Anglo-Fascists grind you down!
