there are no specific maintenance requirements for ILRjr, I think as long as you show your income proof then you should be fine. Are you overdrawn?

hi naeed, savings and maintenance is the same thing isnt it?
Anyways there is no specific rule that require you to have savings in your account when applying for ILR jr.
Overdrawn in terms of current account whether your balance goes below zero? Sorry it is not relevant to your question but I was just wondering in relation to section 5 of SET O, you know the one for earnings, rent etc. I think they use this section to assess whether you can maintain yourself without going on benefits.
But no, there are no requirements to keep savings for a specific amount of time (i.e. maintenance requirement as per Tier 1 and 2 applications and extension)
