/26 and no response as yet. Can't see an issue as dozens of historic business and non imm visas going back 30 years and more than enough cash plus a condo lease but it is a little disappointing to get no response and if you phone you simply get cut off after 30 seconds.Email and Facebook chasers similarly ignored.

I did mine last week I only sent one month bank statement, I must of missed it where it says 3 months bank statements, dose it actually say that on the page where you submit them

Chris Anson I r heard it’s their way of proving it’s your money, not your moms or a temporary transfer. They’d do better to insist that money be in your account for 12 months - oh, they already do that!

Chris Anson because if you do net meet the 800k balance requirement they can check for the 65k/month income alternative

Chris Anson done mine today dreadful system. Took 2 hours and needed an Asian man in library to sort it out and he said it was ridiculous
Robert *******
Paulccfc Williams I didn't have an Asian man available so it took me a week. Nothing would load until someone mentioned using a different browser and then it went smooth.
