The bottom of page 40 in the current SET(O) form states that you must provide "bank statements, building society savings book(s), pay slips or other formal documents as evidence of your ability to maintain and accommodate yourself and any dependants without recourse to public funds." Moreover, "the documents showing the finances available to you and to any person supporting you should cover at least the last 3 months."

Does this mean that I may submit either bank statements or payslips for the last three months, but I don't need to submit both?

Would it be O.K. to submit payslips as of 31/7/12, 31/8/12, and 30/9/12 for a 31/10/12 PEO appointment?

You are right.

If you have 31/10/12 PEO appointment, then that is what you are supposed to do - coz looking at your payslips generated date pattern I can only assume that your payslip is generated on the last day of each month.

I got 28 days from the 28-day rule.

I got 30 days from the 180-day continuous residence requirement rule. (Each month is considered to have 30 days.)

I got 31 days from http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visas ... intenance/. ("The most recent bank statement must show a date within 31 days before the date of your application.")

Do not expect UKBA to specify details / policy about something that is not a requirement.
