Hi!
i applied for tier4 student visa.After 1 week i was denied because of my maintenance fund. My bank account in UK based although I am in the Philippines now. i have that account since i have from UK last year under the old system. My last statement of account was dated nov 19 and I lodged my application on dec 4. It states there that i wasnt able to hold the sum of money for the require period. I have that account already since March 2008 and is still active. How come the ECO didnt award the ten point to me? Hope you could help me. Thanks

anybody there who could explain why an applicant must held the money at least 28 days?? How about the usual reasons for refusal like history of the account, can we just proceed to any bank and secure a bank certificate even if you just applied for it?? Normally, visa officers will deny an application if they found out that a bank statement/certificate was just opened for the purpose of showing there is a readily available funds..
