Electronic bank statements

[umeshl]

I have opted for "Go Paperless" in Bank statements and I do not receive any paper statements. I have the electronic statements in my account online.

I can print them from online and get stamp on each page of the statement from nearest bank office here for the 12 months for the previous earnings. Should this suffice the requirement or are there any hidden clauses for this to be accepted?

Any help from the members of the board is highly appreciated!! Thanks!!

Order the statements from the bank and you will receive the statements in 5-7 days by post. The statements you get by post are treated as originals they are the best option.

I tried ordering statements some time last year for different purpose. They only provide the duplicate statements and they are not on company paper (not even color printouts). They are just A4 normal paper as if we are printing it here. I called the customer care today, and they say that they will be providing the duplicate statement which is just the print out. It would not have the company hologram present on it. She also refused to stamp it which means that I need to get it stamped over here only in the nearest branch.
Can you please let me know if that is acceptable by the embassy?

Is it not a very good advice to have the electronic statements printed (in color) and have a stamp from the nearest branch office?

i really wont suggest any plain paper with a stamp and sign !!
they insist on ORIGINAL STATIONARY - n that insists a BANK LOGO on the paper.

i m sure if you go to your bank branch and ask for statement on bank stationary they will provide it

with which bank do you hold your account ? other people might have faced same thing they shall help.

I hold the account with Bank of America in US. They do not provide statement in the branch office. They do provide the transaction history; but only for the current month.

The Tier1 guidance document says that we can have the online statements printed out and have a stamp on it. Would that not work?

its better you ask ppl who had account with bank of America, how did they manage
also you can try getting a letter saying that these printouts bearing stamp and sign are genuine, and this letter should be on letter head

Hi...what bank u r dealing with..... if its HSBC they will not stamp ur printouts at all. They dont verify statements. so if it is hsbc, the only best option is to order by post.
if it is some other bank then YES take the printouts and get them stamped by the bank, H.O permits to do so.
Good Luck
