I am financially supported by my father who transferred this money for my rent payment. He is sending more as cash through my mom who is flying here next week. As you can imagine this is a complicated situation that the embassy will likely make no effort to understand so I'd like to avoid having to explain it, even though everything I'm doing is legitimate.gokulatti wrote: ↑Fri Jun 01, 2018 1:05 pmbanks are not obliged to give out your bank details due to data protection law subject to the country in question. if you are asking if the immigration officer can just take his phone and call your bank to ask what is the balance of this account today, the answer is no. they have to go through the process of request called ' status check' usually takes time.
However banks are obliged to check the authenticity of any documents already given i.e the statement you already provided to them. Usually when the IO is in doubt he/she would just send YOU request to provide latest bank statements/last 6 months-12 months to check the average balance of your account. If it was your money and you spent it for the purposes that you said is to be used you shouldn't worry so much.

There is no need to "explain" them anything.
I have no idea about the current waiting times.
However I'd assume that it's longer than whatever the usual is given the time of year.
