I have a question on an Irish visa, or rather on a bank statement for a visa. Does it matter for the embassy, ​​for what time before the invoice was the account opened and how was the money contributed? Would not it be suspicious if, just one week before the visa was issued, you simply open an account and immediately deposit on it, say 3000 EUR, and then just take out an extract certified by the bank's seal and the operator's signature?

Or it is desirable to do as for the British - to open the account in advance, to take an extract at least for six months and with the history of the movement of money on this account?

To apply for a visa to Ireland, you must provide the original bank account statement with bank details (address, telephone number), stamped by the bank. It is highly desirable that the statement reflects the movement of funds on the bank account for the last 3 months.

It is allowed that the statement contains data on the balance on the account. In this case, it is recommended that the balance of funds in the account / accounts be double the cost of the purchased tour, or contain at least 70,000 rubles for each departing.

A one-time deposit of a large sum of money into a bank account just before the application is not taken into account when assessing the financial solvency of the applicant.

A certificate from a bank or a statement of funds in a bank account must not be older than one month at the time of filing with the Embassy of Ireland.
