As for the 500k in your account many have been approved by UK embassy when they have only moved the money in within the same month (myself included) then supportwd by the other financial docs you mentioned

Get a revolut account. Transfer when you need to from santander, will just be a normal uk to uk account they wont know you where you are

When you apply it will ask you for details of where you are staying and the flight details. It doesnt initially ask for proof of either so inputting where you intend on staying and your intended flight should be enough, however some people are then later asked to provide the proof of booking both or either. So be prepared to provide if asked for. It will depend on the type of dtv and embassy you apply for.

It depends which embassy you are applying to. Some want the 3 months others (defo UK) dont mind if its only been put in same day. As long as the money is in a personal current account in your name.

If you read the comments alot have said it was more likely due to the fact they had the sticker in their passport which were used for the DTVs given at the offices early on compared to the usual stamp that most people are getting.

Theres no real evidence that they were questioning the actual type because they are suspicious of soft power DTVs it could have been coincendental

@Kevin *******

im not sure the limit but i converted about 15pages into 1 and that was fine 👍

yes it is after that the flight and accomodation section when you go on continue, before submission. There will be a section to upload financial support and supporting documents

Also you can only upload one document so people are using a pdf tool to merge all the supporting docs together. Most (including myself) used ilovepdf.com

Passport photo and proof of accomodation on first page is jpeg. It then autopopulates the info...definitely double check all the information as it sometimes reads the numbers wrong and people are getting rejected because of that. The next bit after flights and accomodation asks proof of funds and works etc dependent on which route you are applying for. This is where you upload the PDFs

Im hoping to be coming out in April. Let me know if you manage to sort out an agreement to sublease i may be interested
