    Nice video. If applying along with family members, whether everyone needs to submit security deposit separately or only one security deposit is sufficient?.

    • @TheBackpacksters
      @TheBackpacksters  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! One deposit for each individual member of the family 😅

  • @pritampandit

    The main problem is keeping 70k as a deposit without getting any interests. This was actually changed last year before to that it was only 650 aed no security 😊

    • @TheBackpacksters
      @TheBackpacksters  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes! That's true 😅 the only potential gain is any currency appreciation but that could be quite small.

    Im in a situation where my father possesses the required bank balance of 4K USD, while my mother does not. should we present separate bank statements for both individuals, or would my father's bank statement alone be sufficient? Pls advise

    • @TheBackpacksters
      @TheBackpacksters  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      No, as a couple, we submitted only one bank statement of the primary applicant ("sponsor" as per the form). As long as the balance shows the amount for both individuals, it's alright!

    If Australian citizens do we still need our bank statement to be stamped? The banks don’t stamp they just issue statements on bank letter head and say it should be sufficient

    • @TheBackpacksters
      @TheBackpacksters  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You could upload it and wait for the officer's comments. They give you three 'back-and-forths' before closing the visa application.

    Hi , I have question regards to banks statement current my application under modification saying that need to update 6 months statement, unfortunately I have already attached but my six month bank statements around 30 pages unable to update one file so I break down into 5 file & update again they send for modification. In this case how to I fix with should I submit summary of 6 month bank statements in such case only 1 page will come it’s that sufficient?

    • @TheBackpacksters
      @TheBackpacksters  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You must combine the multiple files into one PDF statement of all six months transactions. Combine it and reduce the file size using any online tools like Adobe 👍🏼 one page summary will not work.

    Hello dear,
    Can you tell me if we get UAE 5 years multiple visa and deposit 3000 dirham for security, after 10 to 15 months cancellation we want to return our security money. Whether we get it or not.
    Or 5 years later?

    • @TheBackpacksters
      @TheBackpacksters  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The rules say that you get the deposit on cancellation or maturity of visa term.. so you can cancel after 10-15 months as you said and get refund 😃

  • @ByMAELIFESKYGIRL
    @ByMAELIFESKYGIRL 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hi! I'm trying to apply but after 24hrs. I've received an email stating to reupload an insurance that covers the stay in UAE. So it was a mistake from the travel agency where they missed out the part that the Travel COverage place is not in UAE. SO I needed to reupload another one. Hoping that it will be approved. For Bank Statement, I got the one from my bank app but it's not stamped but they didn't say anything like that. Only the problem with the insurance.
