I have a quick question: I am applying for a DTV for my 13 yr old son and they are requesting proof of his current address. What I have available at the moment is a bankstatement which has his and my name on it with the address however, the account is his, therefore he does not have 500,000 TBH which is plain to see, because I purposely do not give more than $1,000 due to his age. I have separately attached financial proof of support from me to him, which is well over the minimum requirement.

My question is if anyone knows or thinks that the application will be denied because his bank has less than 500k TBH. Or, should I just think of another form or address proof for him, or, should I crop only the part of the bankstatement that has his proof of address? But would cropping a bank statement adulterate the proof?

Any thoughts on this will be helpful since I want to get it right the first time.

Thanks in advance
Answer summary
The user is applying for a DTV (Dependent Visa) for his 13-year-old son and needs to provide proof of his current address. The available document is a bank statement that includes both names but shows insufficient funds in the child's account. The user is concerned about whether the application might be denied due to the low balance and is considering alternatives for address proof. Community responses suggest various options such as using the parent's proof of address with a covering letter, providing a school transcript, and confirming requirements with the embassy to avoid cropping financial documents, which could lead to rejection.

What embassy are you applying via? Is it the embassy in your home country or a different one? I believe they are asking for

proof that your child is within their jurisdiction.

As he's your son and you have to show that why not show your proof of address with a covering letter. Kids don't normally have proof of address in their own name

No cropping or redact; it will get rejected. Check the embassy website for requirements go through them like checkboxes. Some embassy could accept sponsor bank statement. You could check directly with them.
