Bank statement for financial requirement

Post by Cakeinlondon9 » Sat Sep 12, 2020 12:34 am

Im applying for flrm in UK but using all saving route from my side from bank account in my home country, the problem is because i didnt request the statement at the branch but via call center they cannot issue a copy with the stamp on it, it will be like online bank statement but without the official stamp from bank branch.. this worries me because the requirement is that they need to be stamp.. im desperately worry that they wont believe that my document are legit please help :( I asked some people they said that documents submit should all be reliable enough because home office cannot verify these kind of documents issued from bank outside on UK, is that true? Please help i dont want to get refuse over no stamp issue :(

Home office can definitely verify and do have means of verifying any document they want to, remember the burden of proof lies with the applicant.
Can you ask the bank if you give a letter of authority to someone to collect it in person they will then be able to issue a stamped statement.
Or is there a means for you to print an online statement by yourself?

Yes they said because i request it via call center and not in person they can only get me the online version to print it. So when I ask the bank that because there is no stamp they might not believe me that its legit document issued from the bank what do i have to do to allow home office as third party to be able to verify and check my account and the bank said there is no way for anyone other than the account holder to gain access to account info or verify any document if thyre not the account holder.. this is confusing.. now im worry that if they cant verify it they might just refuse it over no stamp reason :S

The online version of some banking and financial institution do have electronic stamp and or signature, check if yours does.
The person who attended to you is probably new to the role or something. HO can and will find out any details they want to even beyond what you have provided in your application, do not under estimate their reach.

Just ask at the bank. They can stamp them
