Avoiding the Most Common Visa Mistake
Financial document errors account for the vast majority of avoidable student visa refusals from Bangladesh. The UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) enforces strict calculations under the 28-day sequential holding rule.
The Golden Rules of the 28-Day Holding Period
- The required funds (remaining first-year tuition + 9 months living costs) must stay in the bank account for a continuous period of at least 28 consecutive days.
- The closing balance cannot fall below the required minimum threshold by even 1 Taka on any single day during this 28-day period.
- The bank statement must not be older than 31 days on the date you submit your online visa application.
- Acceptable account holders are limited to the student, father, mother, or legal court-appointed guardian with verified birth certificate and affidavit proof.
