T1G and Maintenance funds

Post by zahid.ali.anwar » Tue May 24, 2011 11:20 pm

Hi All,

One of my friend is applying for his Tier 1 General extension. He is short of 7 days out of 90 days for his maintenance funds requirment.

- Is there are chance that he can claim the maintenance funds points even if he do not fulfill the complete 90 days requirment.

- Can he use Pankina for this?

- Secondly, he was telling me that he has a joint account with his another friend. The joint fund has amount that he can show as maintenance fund in addition to his original account. Can this be done? If so, then how he can do this.

Need advise from seniors on this.

Thanks
The question is... to be or not to be....

The 90 days is a rule, not a general guideline. Anything less will result in a refusal, the same as if he didn't have enough money.

Pankina is only relevant for applications up until July 2010.

Joint account can be used as long as he is clearly named on it and it complies to UKBA requirements (not some sort of investment or something).
