Hello,
I am applying online and there is 4MB limit for proof of finance.

I have taken original statements, bank letter and FD letter, all signed by bank manager and put a seal on it with signature.

Do I still need to notarize these?

I also have to put GIC and scholarship. Can I just merge PDFs?

Also, it hasn't been asked, but should I attach ITR document as well?

I might not be able to put everything in one doc.

On a separate note, I need to upload passport copy as well. Is color scan enough? Or that needs to ne notarized?

Thank you beforehand.

1. Does you checklist said certified/notarized? Most don't, they say "copy". Just follow the instructions.

Your bank statements and passport is not required to be notarized however the letter from the person who'd be supporting you and for whom you've taken the bank statements of ( e.g Parents ) then you have to notarize the letter.
