Quick question on joint bank account

Post by InUkOnHsmp » Mon Aug 24, 2009 11:46 am

Hi Forum,

Tried to search for this in the forum but could not find any relevant posts.

I am due to apply for an extension from HSMP -> Teir1 in a couple of months. My query is I have a joint bank account with my wife, and so all statements etc are in my and her name.

Would this be a problem when claiming previous earnings, or providing maintenance fund proofs?

Has anyone been in this situation and got successfully through extension?

Regards

That should be fine.. my visa+extn was approved on the basis on statements from joint account (me and wife).

Thanks Ramesh and NKSG.

I did read this somewhere in the guidance, but forgot to double check it while posting. Apologies for asking something which is right there in the guidance.
