Can you just clarify the time that the money needs to be in my account? I been holding off my application until my money has been in my account 3 months which I believed is what I had to do?

I read London is less strict about time the 500k or equiv currency is held in your savings account, maybe 10 days is ok, I would only be waiting if you can afford to do so, otherwise apply and try.. dyor as usual.

It appears London prioritise based on when your flight booking is. When I applied on a Monday I said my flight was the following Sunday and was approved within 48 hours.
