Student Visa Financial Requirements — What Embassies Expect

Student visas are the most common reason Sri Lankans need show money — and the most complex to get right. Each country has different requirements for tuition proof, living expenses, holding periods, and source of funds. We have 10+ years of experience preparing student visa financial documentation for every major destination. We know the exact amounts, the right timing, and the format each embassy expects.

Typical requirements: Most student visas require proof of first-year tuition plus 12 months of living expenses. Amounts vary by country: Australia (AUD 21,041/year living), UK (£1,334/month London, £1,023/month elsewhere), Canada (CAD 10,000/year), and USA (per I-20 estimates). Funds must typically be held for 28+ days.
