Unmarried partner visa - investment account, help!
 

We are applying for the unmarried partner visa for my partner, and going down the savings route. One of my partner's accounts is an investment account (Belgian bank). It is one you can withdraw from immediately but the value fluctuates as it's based on share prices. Is that a problem? And do we need to prove that it can be withdrawn from immediately? Ie. With a translated webpage or T&Cs doc. This particular account also only gives statements every 6 months. So we have one from July staying the value in June, and one from January stating the value in December. Is this okay? We plan to submit the evidence and application in the next week or so. Thanks!

Read paragraphs 11 and 11a of the following document:

With the fluctuation you mention how does one guarantee that the money in this investment account will be sufficient to meet the criteria?

Savings are always referred to as 'cash savings'

If the value fluctuates then you need to ensure it has remained above the threshold over the entire six month period prior to application. You’ll also need to factor in changes in the exchange rate assuming the currency is Euros rather than pound sterling.
