Bank statement issue date is the same as application date

Post by hasano5 » Sun Sep 15, 2013 11:41 am

hey there

So, I am going to apply soon, on the 18th or 19th of September. However, I am a bit in doubt about this matter. Is it ok if my bank statements' issue date is the same as the visa application date??. So, for example is it ok if my statement is issued on 18/09/2013 and my visa application is on 18/09/2013?

Additionally, if you guys can help me this one too, it would be great. I am planning to make a small transaction on the 18th of September in each bank account. Then I will get the bank statements which will show the closing balance as 18/09/2013 on the same date. Finally, I will also pay for my application online on the 18/09/2013. So, everything is on the same day. However, I am afraid that if you do this, it might create a bit of a confusion in the officer's mind and he/she might refuse the application.

This is my last chance to apply before I can arrive before my latest date to start the course. If I get refused, I will probably miss the first year of my studies in the Uni :(.

Thank You.

Having bank statement demonstrating the required funds on the same date of lodging application will be fine. But if you are paying the application fee on the same day then visa officer might not get the clear picture regarding the funds unless the bank statement have sufficient funds even after paying the fee.
Please donot send PM. Write in open forum to facilitate others too.

Hello!!

I have the same problem as hasano5, only in my case I will be taking education loan. So my question is when can i apply for visa? should it be after the loan is approved or can i show the loan application receipt etc. and apply while i wait for loan approval. The thing is that i got confirmation from the university just yesterday and the course begins from 30th September, and I don't have much time.
And what are the chances of my visa approval.

Thanks
