Spouse Visa bank statements dates confusion
Hi!
I'm applying for a spouse visa from within the UK relying on my own income to meet the requirements.
I'm confused about the dates required on the bank statements. I have already submitted my application on 3 sep 26. I am now proceeding to book my biometric and then upload my documents.
I'm suddenly not 100% what my previous 6months of bank statements should be "dated" to meet the "covering the last 6 months + no earlier than 28 days" requirements exactly without any uncessary mistakes from my end. I generated my bank A statements in which I receive my salary, on 1 sep 2026.
My bank B statements which show my cash savings and other internal bank to bank transfers were generated on 28 Aug .
I am technically submitting payslips and statements to show the same for the months Feb to Sep. (To be safe)
Does the date the bank statements are generated on matter? Should the date be 3 Sep or later to cover the WHOLE period before application date. Do people download their bank statement after submitting and then upload those?
Sorry this is such a basic point but don't want to risk it with numbers and dates.
