Tier 1 extn - Bank statement question

[vignezh]

I wanted to claim points for 01 April 2011 - 29 Feb 2012 (11 months). When you provide Bank statement as evidence, do you have to include statements pages from 01 April 2011 to 29 Feb 2012. Becuase my statements starts on 11th of every month. my april salary was paid on 29th April which is shown in the statement. If I keep statements starting from 11th April 2011 to 3rd March 2012 (to cover february 2012) salary, will it be okay?

Thanks in advance...

Yes. As long as the statement can confirm the transaction, you will be fine. Date from which the statement period runs does not really matter

I provide bank statements covering the whole earning period even if that means including part of a month I'm not claiming. For example, if I was claiming 1 Feb 2011 - 31 Jan 2012 and my statements were issued on 11th I would include the one covering 11 Jan 2011 - 11 Feb 2011. I mark my earnings with a post-it note so the caseworker knows which ones to look at.
