I am J.A. Premasiri and hope to visit China in the first week of May.

My friend in Australia has already consented to sponsor me the whole tour and he has sent me a letter addressing to the embassy expressing his willingness to support me financially for the tour. He also joins me in this tour. Is his letter enough to apply for visa? The travel agent in Australia is unwilling to to issue an original itinerary unless he is paid the total amount for the tour but he has sent a letter and other details. He can be paid. In case the application is refused we are not refunded. So let me know a better solution.
