Banl loans are the responsibility of the applicant ONLY. A company will simply support an application by confirming his status as an employee but they will not act as Gaurantor. This guy needs to go to his bank and discuss just how he can repay the loan with no work. If the bank is International they can easily issue him with a letter confirming that he can repay the loan when he returns to the USA - that would satisfy the Authorities here. If the guy needs cash to pay his immediate expences and his flight home surely the QL crowd can raise it?
