Thanks a ton for clearing my Doubts.
Just a final query and will wind up with all my doubts/Queries.
I got married on 1st Jan 2009 and would show 1600£ funds increasing in my HSBC UK FLEX Saver Bank Account starting 18 Dec 2008 - 18 March 2009 which would cover 3 months period satisfactorily.
Its not mandatory to show the funds in your account only after the Date of Marriage right?
the start date can be before the date of marriage as well ??
Kindly request you to please advice, so that my Wife can proceed further with the application.
I'm very grateful for your timely response, which is highly appreciated.
Cheers,
XXXXXX .

With regard to your query, yes, you need 1600 GBP for dependant.These amounts must be held in your personal bank account for a minimum period of 3 months immediately preceding and dated no more than one month prior to the date you submit your application. The balance should not fall below the required minimum at any time during the 3 month period.
