Hi Guys,
I am on HSMP visa and am applying for extension under Tier1 visa. I have some queries on the bank statements.
I receive only electronic bank statements from my salary bank account. I need to submit this bank statement as the second proof of my salary. When I asked for the official paper statement from the bank, they mentioned that it will be same as what I print.
The home office guidance notes on this is not very clear.
----------------------------
If the applicant wishes to submit electronic bank statements from an online account he/ she should also provide a supporting letter from the bank on company headed paper confirming that the documents are authentic. Alternatively an electronic bank statement bearing the official stamp of the bank issuing the statements will be accepted. This stamp must appear on every page of the statement. For the purposes of this guidance an online bank account is one that operates solely over the internet and sends their bank statements to their customers electronically (for example over the internet or via email).
----------------------------
What do they mean by online accounts? Does the bank sending electronic bank statements also come under this?
I have got the electronic bank statements printed by myself and stamped(on every page) by the bank. Does it also need to be signed by them or do I any require any letter from them authenticating the statements?
Also, I have only quarterly statements, effectively there are 4 statements for the last 1 year. Would that be fine? And maintenance funds, I am showing another bank account as well, where I receive official paper statements? Will it cause any confusion?
Anyone has sent the electronic bank statements for the extension approved before? This is very urgent, as I am applying next week. Can someone please share their experience here,
Thanks,
Ravi.
