they sent me an Email asking me to upload more information. When I logged in there was 3 separate links, for the statements that they wanted. I am applying using the income option.
I used my Uk driving licence on my None O visa application. I have a Thai daughter, but I have gone down the retirement route as I am over 50. I have used the monthly income over 65,000 as proof of funds. They wanted 3 months of bank statements for that.
They visa is issued from day of approval, it is valid for entry during the 3 month period. You do not have to exit when the entry period expires. You can stay for the period granted.
There is a sign up , that they only accept 200 a day. Not sure if that includes the pre booked people. So best to go in the morning, I got there at 11am, and I was number 110.
