Bank Statement

[csmith1982]

Hi,

If I receive my bank statement on the 10th of each month, how long do I have to apply for student visa using that bank statement as evidence of funds?

Ie - I receieve statement 10th Aug show required funds. If I was to apply for visa on 9th September wud I still be able to show statement from 10th August?

I'm guessing the question is how long is a bank statment valid for before requring a more recent one.

Obviously, if you don't get issued another before you apply then you can use the previous months one.

i could be wrong but i think it should be not more than 28 days old.

i would suggest calling your bank and asking if they can possibly do an upto date statement to be sure that it will be within the allowed timeframe. some banks agree to do this for an extra fee (lloyds charged me £10 for this).

but please read the UKBA policy guidance to know the correct information. all the best

It depends on the bank. HSBC issues statement as you requested and posts them to you which will take up to a week. Then, you could apply.
