ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello, 

I applied for the DTV Visa, Soft Power Route  London embassy (Muay Thai)

Got an email today, asking for additional documents

For the Document indicating current location : Do bank statements work? 

I provided a saver bank statement when I initially applied. 2nd time I will apply with Bank Statement of a credit card with recent transfers in UK.  Does this qualify for a document for current location? 🤔

Let me know please if you were in a similar situation, thank you!

The original poster seeks clarification on whether bank statements can fulfill this requirement and mentions their previous submission. Multiple comments suggest alternatives such as utility bills, driver's licenses, or highlighting relevant transactions.

Don't complicate things, because they didn't ask for a bank statement (again), but could use alternatives, such as:

council tax bill

If you don't have any of the docs they requested you can try with a recent statement. I would probably buy something from a shop, get a receipt. Highlight the transaction on the statement and upload the receipt.

They want to see you're still in the country.

Why not supply what they state, a utility bill or a driver’s license?
