Applying in-country but maintenance funds in India

[immig000]

Hi,
I came to UK recently and i am applying for Tier1 from inside UK for me and my wife. But the maintenance funds are in India.

I have 2 questions

1) what is the amount i need to show - is it 2800 + 1600 or 800 + 1600?

2)I have anyways maintained 2800 +1600. But specifying this amount in the covering letter - will the caseworker get confused?

12 months not spent than higher limit will apply

I guess you are incorrect here.

If less than 12 months in UK, then 1600 (for dependent) and 800 (for self).

The same answer is present on sticky as well.

You dont need a covering letter. You dont need to mention any amounts. Caseworkers do not get "confused", and will figure out what amount should have been present.
