Bank Statements (POF) Slightly Outdated?

I had gotten my bank statements and a letter from my bank in early August as I was trying to meet the August 30, 2017 deadline for my ITA. However, due to unforeseen circumstances I had to decline my ITA (a BIG part due to the incompetence, inefficiency and flat out lying medical panel physician office at Sulaiman Habib Medical center in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia NOT providing me with my upfront medical confirmation on the day I went for my medical exam like panel physicians are supposed to).

My question is if I get an ITA again in September 2017 some time, should I bother with getting fresh bank statements or should I go with what I have already? I have official bank statements from January 1 to July 31, 2017. And the bank letter was issued in the first week of August 2017 (can't remember the exact date but it was before I traveled).

My statements will be missing the month of August 2017 basically.

Would appreciate your advice.

Ideally you and CIC want the most up-to-date bank statements. I re-generated my statements after they became > 2-3 weeks old due to some delays. Upto 2 weeks should be admissible.

Have you taken IDP or British Council for IELTS?

This sounds like you re-generated them online. I guess I will have to get the statements from my bank closer to when I plan to submit my complete application as that will be the most up to date option. Just trying to recall if anything else is time sensitive such as the statements. Can't think of anything.

One bank was generated online, the other I walked into the branch and they put a seal on the print outs

Are online printed statements acceptable?
My understanding is that they are NOT accepted, unless you take them into branch and get a stamp or signature to help authenticate them.

Are credit card statements from the same bank required as well? And in case the bank doesn't provide them, would online banking generated credit card statements work?

Hey guys, I'm in a situation once again since almost a month has lapsed since I got my bank statements from my bank. Due to delays in receiving other documentation I am back where I originally was. September 27th statements for submitting application in what may be the first week of November.

What do you advise? Get a fresh set made, although that would be quite frustrating but if it MUST
