Question
We are in the process of gathering our documents for the Spain non lucrative visa application.
My question is for the proof of finances—it asks for original and stamped documents. A lot of my savings are in online accounts, where there are no high street branches.
How do people get around this?
Answers
These are the answers of Spainguru’s Facebook group members:
“I printed our statements out and gave 12 months’ worth. No stamps were needed; that was in Edinburgh.”
“I just printed a year’s worth of statements off the Internet. I highlighted income if it was pension or whatever. All accepted at the Manchester consulate.”
“In London, I just included printouts of the previous three months’ statements and proof of where the money came from. No stamps were required.”
“All our accounts were online; we supplied printouts of the monthly and annual statements.”
“My savings are all in online accounts, and all I did was print off 12 months of statements and hand those in. We were told they were acceptable.”
Conclusion
According to Spainguru’s Facebook group members, applicants for the Spain non lucrative visa (NLV) have successfully submitted financial proof using printed bank statements from online accounts. Different consulates, such as those in Edinburgh, Manchester, and London, have accepted printed statements without the need for stamps.
Some applicants highlighted their sources of income, while others provided supporting documentation to verify the origins of their funds.
It’s advisable to print at least 12 months of statements and include any relevant supporting documents to ensure a smooth application process.
