Common visa document mistakes to fix before you submit
Most problems you can fix are about consistency: your form, letters and statements should tell the same story. Check names, dates, salaries and addresses match everywhere.
What to check
- Your name, date of birth and passport number match on every document
- Your salary on payslips matches your employer letter and bank credits
- Large recent deposits are explained with evidence
- Trip dates and costs are the same on your form, bookings and invitation
- Documents not in English (or French for Canada) have certified translations
- Your passport is valid for long enough
