Important : Proof Of funds: Property Evaluation and Others

[rocky272727]

Hi,

Recently I have seen some members providing this update that many Local Visa Offices who have mentioned in their visa office checklist that they do not accept property evaluation as a valid proof of fund, have got replies to their emails that it is accepted.

Example: New Delhi Visa office, in there checklist has mentioned that they do not accept property evaluation certificate but recently one applicant mentioned this that they have replied to his email that they accept property evaluation documents.

So in nutshell please email your local CHC asking for valid proof of funds documents as the checklist are old and some of you might get some benefit out of it

Best of luck

Hi Shreya and all,

Funds means the liquid form of funds available to you like FDs, saving bank deposits, etc. Stocks are not considered as readily liquid. Sometimes it is hard to sell stocks. So, i would advise you redeem some of them and have it in the form of cash in your bank account. If you are married, both you and your partner's bank statements will do as you are one family but not of your parents' money, if you are married, until they put it into your account.

Secondly, property evaluations are not liquid cash and they are not going to help in proof of funds. Visa office does not accept it but it is no harm if you get property evaluated and add it to your file. But remember only funds in the form of cash is accepted as proof of funds.

Hope this helps....
