Does the 30 days rule for documents apply only for prove of maintance fund. New on this forum

The exchange rate to be used to convert maintenance fund should be the exchange rate on the date of application. So, unless you get the letter on the same day of your application, the figure in GBP is useless.

It is better you apply from your country of residence. Because if you apply from India, there is no guarantee that your application will be decided within your vacation and might prevent you from travelling and getting back to your work as your passport will be at BHC. Just a suggestion.
