Evidence of funds
Hi there
This is my first post to this forum, so I'd just like to say hi to everyone.
After falling short of the NZ passmark by 4 points I have been advised to go over on a Working Holiday Scheme and see if I can get myself a permanent job offer.
I have had a search through all of your posts looking for an answer to what is probably a really silly question, but I can't seem
to find the answer I'm looking for, although I have found tons of other useful advice.
Basically, I in applying for the WHV, I need to send evidence of either a return ticket or the funds to buy one with my application form. I don't have a return ticket yet, could someone tell me what constitutes evidence of funds, as I will probably buy my ticket on a credit card. Would a bank statement suffice? If so, does this have to show an amount of £700 available in my bank, or just evidence of wages coming in?
Many thanks in anticipation of your help.

When I arrived in NZ on a WHV, they didn't ask for proof of funds at all! I'd got bank statements ready just in case, but they just looked at my passport and visa and stamped the permit in. To be honest, I haven't heard of anyone being asked for proof of funds.
However, that's not to say they won't ask you!
Good luck,
Evelynne
