*For my Veterans*
I’m not sure if it helped any, IF at all, but when I submitted my bank statement, I also submitted my VA benefit letter with it. (I combined the two documents into one via Adobe)
I’m not saying you NEED to do that, as it’s not a required document to submit, but since there was no opportunity to submit additional documents, MY logic for doing that was to show them that in addition to the money in my account, I also have monthly income coming in. That way they can see I can absolutely support myself financially while in the country.
