Cash saving inquiry towards FLR (M) ILR

Post by Kindsoul » Sun Apr 15, 2018 11:39 am

Hi everyone,
My wife has already got 2 extensions of 5 years and now we are preparing for ILR however still have enough time. I myself meet the financial requirement of £18600 alone with my wages however i want to save the cash to combine my wages and cash saving ( in case anything goes wrong ).

I want to bring money from india around £3000 ( small sum) which is deposited on my parents name .
Kindly anybody let men know how could i bring the cash here.

If they send me through thomas cook to my uk account then WHAT document i need from them ( eg. declaration form, proof of deposit or anything)
OR
My mother will visit me later in the year here so can she convert the money and bring it here in uk in cash form . Can i use that . Do i have to explain about it when applying.

OR
i can ask my uncle here in uk to give me small sum depositing in my uk account .


Please anyone experinced member or who has gone through this process suggest what option possibly i can use. It would be a great help.

Kind Regards
Baz

To keep it simple and less complicated, use salary only if you meet the requirement

Savings of £3000 wouldnt be considered anyway and you cannot use "savings" that are borrowed and not in your name/account for at least 6 months

Thanks CR001. You are always helpful. I will have saving around £21000 (sorry for not making clear) by the time i apply to keep it in the bank for 6 months from my own income . The £3000 amonut is just to increase that saving which will be used towards £18600 income requirement. I hope it make sense. Thus, Can i use those option mention above?

Even if you try to increase the savings to cover the shortfall in wages but be informed that if savings fluctuate then HO will consider the lowest balance figure only during the last 6 months.

Thanks. I am well aware of it and that's the reason i intent to get money from india (£3000) before i lock the whole amount for whole 6 months period. Just want a suggestion whats the best option to bring it here given the above options i thought of.

If I were you then will suggest my beneficiary to do bank to bank transfer with clear reference of transaction which will appear on bank statement.

Thanks Seagul. I am also thinking of going for this option. Cheers
