FLR(M) Document Questions

He says it does cover but is going to print a copy of February for both as well.

For the bank stamps on Feb (as the others are already stamped) does it have to be stamped before the application date?

I want to get this thing over with but it seems like we keep having to wait for paperwork. Honestly my mental health has taken a real dive since we've been working on this.

That's the safest thing to do. Yes, get the February bank statement stamped too. 

You are going to want to make absolutely sure that you have everything correct before you submit that way you minimise the inevitable post application worry.

Stamped BEFORE applying then?

I've just looked up his bank hours and they close at 4.30 every day. I'm really upset as now we have to wait til Saturday to apply if so. They used to be open until 6, such poor service.

Natwest will NOT print February nor stamp the copy he has printed, he has called and also they said this when he went in for the others. But we can include a copy of it anyway (plus payslip).

The payslip covers "Tax Period 12" which is all March apparently. A says this is exactly what we had last time and not to worry but I don't know how to not worry over this!

I am seriously unimpressed with natwest right now and might ask him to change banks in the future so its not the same headache for ILR but I don't think there is anything we can do about it right now.

NatWest can only print so many transactions back in branch, depending on how many transactions he does on a regular basis this can go back quite far... but he CAN order February statements to be posted to his home address but it will take up to 7 days to get them. (I bank with Natwest.) Unless this changed recently?

If you decide to go this route and request the February statement to be posted, I would recommend just requesting the full 6 months. They’d all be original (so no need to worry about stamps) and would ‘reset’ the 28 day clock for them before the application too. Can’t hurt since you’d have to wait for the post anyway!

Thanks for your help everyone!

Sorry for ghosting you guys--life got in the way of fun internetting!

If you think asking visa questions as you gather evidence to apply is "fun internetting", I'm worried about the life that got in the way!

What did you decide to do?  Have you applied?  Are you about to apply, after requesting bank statements?  How can we help?

All done, you guys helped when needed! <3 (Life is mainly work, haha, it's been a busy time and my responsibilities have increased recently.)

I had my appointment this morning, the document checking indicated that everything was in order and no further action needed, so I'm just waiting for the result now. I was surprised to get an appointment so soon after applying and pleased that it was down the street from our flat.

I started another thread as I thought others might be looking for the same answer and not want to wade through my doc checking thread for the answer, but maybe you know: does the result come by email? We got the super priority service.

I'm afraid I don't know.   I did all my applications before the contractor shake-up and before the switch to online everything.  Back when I got my postal (non-priority) FLR(M) decision, it just showed up by courier at my door about six weeks after I'd sent it out.
