Hello,can I use my sibling’s company bank statements as my sponsor and his other personal assets as secondary sponsor? And plz after how long do bank statements printed out become invalid ? Will a 21 days since printed out okay ?
Anyone can be your sponsor. However, their assets do not qualify as yours. A recent bank statement is the requirement. I am not aware of any validity period.
Hello ma, please do I need to attach any document to my POF during interview. The account is my uncle’s business account and I don’t bear same surname with him
Hi Oto. Thanks for this video. I am currently experiencing bank statement concerns with my study visa application right now. As at the time of my application, the rate of pounds on oanda was 966. I used 1050 naira to calculate my proof of fund so I was above the required amount. However, my application is still in process and will soon be three weeks since I made my application. During this waiting period, I have just been issued a scholarship from my school (which was not included in my ca). Right now, the oanda rate is above 1050 naira and my bank balance is reading below the required amount. I’m so scared cus I feel now will be a decision period for the Ukvi. I’m so concerned the current rate will affect the decision. Really don’t know what to do. I have contacted my school to ask if they can update my cas with the Ukvi to show that I have just been issued a scholarship ( cus that will reduce the amount of money required in my bank account). Do you have and advice on what else I can do ? Thank you.
Thank you so much, this is very helpful. I use online banking for my business and i realised it cannot be used as proof of funds. What do i do in this situation
@@thewakaholic thanks for your quick response. I have a bank account that I don't use for a long time. Can I run it and attached the online statement of account as I only have just one week left for interview. Is it possible?
Hello! My father is sponsoring my trip to the UK. He has a joint account with my mom and in this joint account there's a large transaction that came in and then out the same day because she's currently helping my 91 year old grandfather sell a property. How can I legitimize and explain this in my UK visa application? My mom has been in constant communication with my grandfather’s lawyer with this property sell.
@@MissValerieEly You have no business explaining the source of the transactions in your sponsor’s account. They just need to show proof of funds to pay for your intended trip.
@@thewakaholic oh okay Oto. Thank you so much! I was so worried as this is my parents’ main savings account. I will still attach the property sell agreement just in case. Good day. Just subscribed:)
I'm a freelancer on upwork, can I use my earning statement on upwork in addition to my bank statement. The purpose of this is to show them I have a Job to take care of my expenses.
what if, i came with my normal bank statement and i say to visa officer the company will direct me amount after getting my visa approve.. means company doesn't direct money till i get my visa granted?
Hi, for my mom's application, shes housewife with saving account and only has deposits, no withdrawal and she has alot of money in her account, should i give my statements or she can use her own?
I’m a 3rd year university student and my guardian is sponsoring me to attend 3 conferences so that I gain more knowledge in the field because he wants me to be the head of his new company in that field would I be granted the visa?
My visa was rejected because they couldn't verify the source of my income. I used my personal account to conduct business operations and my business is not registered. What documents should i provide for them to verify the source of my income?
Proof of your business dealings, either from your supplier/manufacturer/service provider or invoices issued to your customers - plus a cover letter explaining same. Unfortunately, if you don’t have a registered business, then you lack strong ties in that regard, unless you can prove otherwise.
I have someone who is sponsoring my trip, accommodation and all other expenses and it is indicated in my DS160 form. Should i go with his bank statement or mine?
My husband is sponsoring my trip to uk but Decision making centre is demanding that i show my bank statement with 1270 pounds with the 28 days maturity, is it ok to be added as a signatory to my husband's acct and respond to Uk DMC, will the visa be granted
Hello ma, I need your help. My interview is in two weeks, I was invited by my friend (us citizens) and last year September 2023 I was invited for two month but after folling my ds-160 form I did not find any interview date before September 2023 so I pick March 2024. Now my friends who invited me felt we'll be traveling to more place and 2 month will not be enough so they increased it to 4 month on the invitation letter for 2024. My problem right now is in my ds-160 I filled 2 month, and my invitation letter now is 4 month. How will I explain to the V.O. I need your help pls.
Hi, I’m applying for a uk visa and my mum who lives in the state will pay for my flight ticket but I don’t want to transfer the money into my account . Who do I explain it to them ?
Well the bank statement I submitted for my I-20 will be 7 months old well before the actual day for my visa interview,will this affect my chance of getting a visa in any way.
hello mam embassy is asking for 6 months statement i had sent them recent 3 months statement but the problem is there was a transaction gap for like 3 months from nov to jan and i had good transaction form feb to april ... i had opened bank acc from august and its like 9 months but i have 3 months gap what should i do now please help mam they have mail for bank statement ...
@@dipenmgr4370 You can. However, they will determine was weight to give to your explanation against the information on the statement of accounts. If the embassy indeed requested for further documentation from you, that is potentially a good sign.
Thank you people are just making this looks really hard but with your explanation it looks easier
You’re welcome.
Wow detailed explanation. Yii are so good at this
Thanks for educating us on this specific topic

Can I use same account statement for my CAS to apply for UK student visa
I have a scholarship for studying in uk( I am a student in UK). I have applyied to schengen visa. I have a bank account for scholarship from my home country. But 1 month ago, I withdrawed my money from this account, and opened uk account and transfereed this amount into this new account. What should I do? I have an appointment after 1 month.
Does embassy reckon with pension funds and bank statement as supporting documents
On my COS letter my employer tick yes for maintenance. However i have got scanned my bank statement by mistake. During biometric process. Will it put bad impact on my visa ?????
If lump sum was deposited 8 months ago it wouldn't matter as much correct? Since only last 6 months will provided.
Wonderful content. Just one question though, can we submit share holdings as financial proof in case of study visa ?
Not as proof of funds but as proof of strong ties to your home country.
I am applying for an f1 visa , and my mom has no job, but all my family’s savings are in her account. Will it be a problem to show here saving account as proof of funding?

Please can i apply for visitor visa with 3 months bank statement in the UK?
The requirement is 6 months.
Thank you for this, but in my case it's an account that I used to save money and my husband was depositing money for me for the trip is it acceptable?
Yes, you can use a savings account as proof of funds.
Hey am wondering do USA universities call the bank that issued the bank statement
No 😊
They don’t have time for that
Please i have been wandering what type of bank account one needs to use for this purpose. Is it a savings account or a current account ?
You can use any one of them.
Hello,can I use my sibling’s company bank statements as my sponsor and his other personal assets as secondary sponsor?

Unfortunately, I have no recommendations. While proof of funds is fundamental to visa approvals, it is not the only determining factor. Wait it out.
Exactly what happened to me 😢
How far? Were you granted d vi
@@benethebube-mi9ph hi. Yes I was granted my visa
Nice video, can you please reply if Saving account statement with good 3 months maintained balance works well for visas and immigration?
Each countries has its own requirements. Read up for the country you’re applying to.
Thank you so much, this is very helpful. I use online banking for my business and i realised it cannot be used as proof of funds. What do i do in this situation
Open a bank account for your business, operate it for a while and apply when you are ready.
Alternatively, you can use your personal account.

Hi , please I just got employed so I have not bank statement to submit for visa application. I have a sponsor. Please what should I do ?
Your sponsor can show proof of means of financial support.
I'm a freelancer on upwork, can I use my earning statement on upwork in addition to my bank statement. The purpose of this is to show them I have a Job to take care of my expenses.
Yes
what if, i came with my normal bank statement and i say to visa officer the company will direct me amount after getting my visa approve.. means company doesn't direct money till i get my visa granted?
Your company should say that via a letter, not you. Get an introduction letter from your company stating these facts.
thank you very much... appreciate that
@@thewakaholic
What if someone else wants to sponsor my trip and we've ever met, can I use their bank statement?
@@savannahkelsey9530 You can do as you please. However, it does not guarantee that you will get approved for a visa.
Hi, for my mom's application, shes housewife with saving account and only has deposits, no withdrawal and she has alot of money in her account, should i give my statements or she can use her own?
She can use hers.
@thewakaholic Thank you so much, really appreciate your reply.
Must the opening balance be as much as the closing balance?
You’re overthinking it. Operate the account like a natural person would do.
I’m a 3rd year university student and my guardian is sponsoring me to attend 3 conferences so that I gain more knowledge in the field because he wants me to be the head of his new company in that field would I be granted the visa?
You’re asking the wrong question. The only way to find out is to apply.
In short my question is does age affect your visa application because I’m just 21
I want to transfer my funds from my business account to personal account how do i explain and show evidence of the lump sum
By telling the truth as it is.
good afternoon dear, my bank name and my passport name is different can i attach affidavit to prove that both names are mine?
Yes. Include proof of name change.
OK, i have news paper publication and also curt affidavits as well will that be a strong prove @@thewakaholic
What if the bank statement is 2 months old like the last balance was two months can it still be used?
@@vincentamissah9207 The interviewer will determine if that is enough. Yours is to present your best case.
My visa was rejected because they couldn't verify the source of my income. I used my personal account to conduct business operations and my business is not registered. What documents should i provide for them to verify the source of my income?
Proof of your business dealings, either from your supplier/manufacturer/service provider or invoices issued to your customers - plus a cover letter explaining same.
Unfortunately, if you don’t have a registered business, then you lack strong ties in that regard, unless you can prove otherwise.
Just register your business, that will be all
'can a single deposit be used as pof
Anything can be used, however, if it is sufficient proof is what you should assess for yourself.
I have someone who is sponsoring my trip, accommodation and all other expenses and it is indicated in my DS160 form. Should i go with his bank statement or mine?
Go with both.

I have question. What if I don't have enough funds in my bank account
Then you should not apply for a visa.
what if they are proceeds of selling property
What about it?
What if your business account is a newly opened account?
Then you should operate it for a while before you apply.
