Hi fwd079, Yes, you are right, but you have put "Bachelor (Honours) Degree". My degree was the "Bachelor Degree" option in the drop down. That is the option I used in all my previous applications. I don't think I can use the "Bachelor (Honours) Degree" option because my degree certificate says "Bach...

Saurabh,

To be on the safe side, why dont you just get a letter from the bank stating that you have an account with them and the account number is xxxxxxx.

This way, you will be sure that there is nothing missing in your application.

Cheers

Do you have any idea if Fixed deposits can be used as evidence for "maintenance funds" ?

Thanks for the info.
