Thank you for your response

AMEN

Evidence from more than one bank account is allowed. ECO will take the cumulative total across both accounts into consideration provided
the closing balance of both accounts falls within the require 31 days period up until the date of application – and the funds in both were held for the required 28 days

Hello fam! Where it says passport pages of your passport, should I upload only the passport data page or all the pages in my passport including passport data page ?

while I was hoping for positive news this morning for my brother, an empty NSF mail just arrived. I hope a positive decision will be made this week.
