Maintenance Funds - Combination of Bank Accounts

Post by meetvans » Fri Jan 22, 2010 10:47 am

Current Visa Status: HSMP
Visa Expiry date: 26 Feb 2010

I had an urgent query regarding the Maintenance Funds that need to be shown for HSMP extension under Tier 1.
Can you show a combination of saving accounts to prove that you've got sufficient funds for last 3 months.
For example
22-MAY-2009 TO 22-NOV-2009 Bank 1 Regular Saver Account having funds above £800 for this period.
19-NOV-2009 to 06-JAN-2010 Bank 2 Monthly Savings Account having funds above £800 for this period
Not a single day the amt has dropped below the min limit.
The latest bank statement date is 06-DEC-2009 to 06-JAN-2010.
This covers the entire 3-month period.

I've got the statements pulled from the bank on the bank stationery for BANK 1 A/c however, it does not show my name completely, hence don't want to take a chance.

For Bank 2 a/c the previous stmt before 19-NOV-2009 has been missed out and the Bank has given me the transactions on a letterhead and also the stamp. Should I present this stmt.
16-OCT-2009 to 03-NOV-2009 Bank 2 Stmt original present.
04-NOV-20009 to 18-NOV-2009 Original missing-I've got the transactions on bank's letterhead and stamped.
Unfortunately der's a difference of 12 pence between the closing balance on 03 NOV 2009 and balance foward as of 14-NOV-2009 as the account trasactions were archived on 04-NOV-2009.
19-NOV-2009 - Till Date ---> Bank 2 Stmt original present.

Would this suffice? Can you please advise.

Yes you can show maintenance funds in combination of your bank accounts.

See this thread with the discussion about similar issue.

Thank u for your prompt response.
If I understand correctly about the most recent bank statement should be dated not less than one month from the application date

Am I right in concurring that the first period statement i.e
Do I need to re-extract my MAY 2009 - 22 NOV 2009 statement from the Bank again as I've already got the originals?
The latest statement I'm having from Bank 2 is 09-DEC-2009 to 06-JAN-2010.

Is there any issue wid this.

The latest statement should be dated within 1 month. So, it should be fine. Also, hope you got the period between 22 Nov 2009 - 09 Dec 2009 covered. Also make sure all the statements meet the required criteria, like stamped, signed, has account name, number, statement date etc (If it is not original received in post). Check everything twice. I am just saying this because, I got my statement and was about to post the next day and during my final checks, I realised that the statement I got printed, stamped and signed from the bank has no name, just the account number. So, I have ordered the statement and waiting for it to arrive. All the best.
