If this post had come from someone with 2 or 300 or more posts, I would have said... hmmmm wonder how that works.

Since I never have seen such a post, I can only assume that your post is one hundred percent bull.

I've heard visa "agents" do this, lending you the money for a fee until your visa is cleared.

I'd be careful, I remember the time when the agents used to do visa runs with people's passports for them, the punter stayed home and his passport crossed the border.

It all turned to tears... jail time, deportations, all round embarrassment.

Now you are changing your tune already.. First it was directly from Immigration ("a common practivce here"...); now from an agent.My or my. I think you should move on.

Common practice or not, it's illegal.
