Applying for FLR(M) using savings route
Possibly over thinking the application form but uncertain on the following. Any advice would be much appreciated!
Under 7.3E, I understand that we put in box (ix) the lowest amount held in the account during the previous six months.
However, at (viii), above (ix) it asks 'Amount in account’ Do we enter the amount in the account on the day of application or the amount that has been in the account for the past six months? In our situation the amount for both answers is above the required amount but with the interest incurred over the past six months, the figure in (iiiv) will be higher than the amount given in (ix)
This may sound petty but with UKVI looking for any reason to refuse visas, we need to get right!

Don't overthink it. Just answer the question as it's written. If your account balance today is £72,000 but it was £70,000 six months ago then write £72,000 for (viii) and £70,000 for (ix). If both figures are above the £62,500 threshold then it won't make a difference anyway.

I know I am overthinking, BritInParis! But thanks for confirming what I thought we should put!
