Maintenance Requirement - Can some one clarify this please..

Post by heretic » Sun Apr 20, 2008 7:51 pm

In relation to people apply after the 28 June the guidelines state that..........
MAINTENANCE (Funds)
Maintenance Requirement – All Applications
188. Please refer to paragraphs 245B of the Immigration Rules.

190. In order to qualify for leave to remain under Tier 1 an
applicant must demonstrate that they have sufficient funds of
at least £800 personal savings to support themselves.

Documentary Requirements

1. Personal bank or building society statements covering the
3 month period immediately preceding the application.
The personal bank or building society statements should
clearly show:
• the applicant’s name;
• the account number;
• the date of the statement;
• the financial institution’s name and logo;
• transactions covering the three month period;
• that there are sufficient funds present in the account
i.e. the balance must always be at least £800;
• the receipt of funds along with regular withdrawals from
the account, where appropriate.
Reading above my interpretation is that the HO is expecting the applicants current account to be in credit by £800 for the required period. My savings bank account does not have regular withdrawals..........what other account could they mean!

This is only my interpretation and would appreciate any insight from a senior member.
