I don't need invitation letter as I have received it from RH China and I applied for Visa
Hi All,
I received Visa, I would like to book Air Tickets before air-fair goes high According to fundcon guidelines its recommended that air tickets should be booked through Fudcon committee members, can i book my air tickets by self because I will be needing $300 USD travel subsidy and would be easy to get reimbursement from Fudcon?
Thanks, Anish P.
Hi Anish,
I am trying to apply for the visa from India. Can you tell if you applied for a tourist visa or a business visa?
If possible, please share the invitation letter with the organizers (after hiding sensitive data, of course).
We will sponsor '''USD $300 ''' for your travel, and we will also sponsor you for '''three day's lodging''' in our chosen hotel during FUDCon.
However, since we have limited budget, we can not offer you full subsidy.
Since we do not have Red Hat employee in the organizing team, we can not buy your tickets, you should buy flight tickets by yourself and get it reimbursed after FUDCon.
For visa, we recommend you to apply for Visa L(travel visa) since it is easier and only need to provide flight ticket and hotel booking receipt.
As for the hotel booking receipt, since the hotel is located in the university campus, it will be pretty late when we get the booking receipt. So you might try book one on your own, since to our knowledge it does not have to be the same one as final lodging hotel.
Please fill in the form[1] '''before''' 2:00 April 28th UTC so that we can book the hotel in time for you.

Since we have some local sponsors sponsored FUDCon in the last minute, and some sponsored attendees did not come, we have some budget left after the conference. So we adjusted your sponsored amount.
We will sponsor '''USD $600''' for your travel and '''three day's lodging''' in our chosen hotel during FUDCon.
