Hello,
I want to know if i applied for a visitor visa online, how many months should the bank statement be? Should i neglige my bank account or you want me to work normally with my bank account during my waiting time for the final decision?

Hi,

Typically the applicant must submit 4-6 months' bank statements. The bank transactions/bank balance must match the declared income. No money should be borrowed from anyone for the visa


Cheers

You can deposit any money if you can submit evidence that you earned it.

After you submit your application, you can continue with your regular banking transactions. Do take care that the balance does not drop too much = It should be able to pay for your airfare + itinerary

It seems like this is a new strategy of VFS Pakistan to increase their revenues by misleading applicants. Terrible!! I hope I am wrong.

I could not find any official communication from IRCC on this matter + the Visa Office Instructions for Pakistan, in fact, suggests submitting these documents.

I suggest you combine all the documents which were returned by VFS Pakistan into one PDF file + any other documents you might have missed..... and quickly email + send a CSE to Abu Dhabi VO to consider these documents. I would do this ASAP
