One of the accounts is a passbook account for which we get no posted statements. It matures on June 10th 2015, so the funds will be unconditionally liquid well before we set foot in the UK. I just visited the branch and they printed (on headed letter paper) 12 months of account balance plus interest accrual and added a letter from the manager stating merely that we have held savings with the bank since June 2011 with a balance continually above $XXX - nowhere on either the 12 month statement or the letter does it mention anything about it being a CD.
So I think we may be good with that one.
This process is full of so many unpleasant surprises. Just when you think you have your bases covered ......
Thanks again everyone. I feel so bad for those in a less fortunate position financially - getting my green card was relatively much simpler, and THAT was no cake walk.
