HSMP Dependant Maintenance Fund

[ammu28]

Dear all,

Could anyone clarify my doubts. I was going through the forum and came to know that you need to provide the maintenance funds

1 . 800£ for main applicant.
2. i. 533£ if the applicant has been in uk for 12 or more months.
ii. 1600£ if applicant is applying from outiside UK.

My questions are

• a. Do we need to show for last 3 months that the amount exists in bank?
  
  b. Is there any problem if I show balance in only one account ?

I got a link which talks about this.

this is the answer from Victoria:

The have also clarified the funds needed. Clarification is a good thing, but funds needed for someone coming on their own will be:

£400 start up costs plus £800 per months subsistance, available for at least 3 months at the time of application = £2800

Plus more for dependents - £534 per month for the first dependent, £267 per month for each following dependent.

(this is different for those switching in country from another category)

Dear Antouk

I believe all you need is minimum £800 which equals to approx. INR 66000 in your account over last 3 months.....the balance should not go less than this amount......But from your post it seems we need £800 * 3 months + £400 = £2800.....IS this the actual requirement??.....I am planning to apply for Tiee 1 from India in May.....Pls help....

As you are in Chennai, I would be more happy if you could reach me on 09884833342 and help me for the same...

guys. good news on maintenance funds.

just called them up today and they have confirmed that if you show them you had £800 atleast for one day/month for 3 months is more than enough . hopefully it should be officially updated very soon in the bia site.

Hope its a fantastic news.
