Lim 04:13 PM, Nov 11, 2022 

Hi! My Schengen Visa (Visit Visa) was approved recently. I secured the invitation letter, Formal Obligation ( Verpflichtungserklärung ) and notarized and authenticated AOS. My boyfriend’s sister is my sponsor in the trip. 
Is my AOS accepted? I will also secure my bank statements but since my trip is fully sponsored as per my visa, I would like to know to avoid being offloaded.
