Thank you, Tod. The Immigration website doesn't mention the affidavit it that context. It doesn't specify what 'evidence' of income is required. Pension statements worked to get my present non-O but, I bow to your collective experience.
The website doesn't mention any affidavit, only evidence of income. I would show my pension statements, as I did successfully, to get the original non-imm-O visa. But, if I have the required income, do I still need money in a bank account?
