Working Holiday Visa Application

Hi, I hope this is the right place to ask. I’m from the UK and I will be heading to London in 4 days to hand in my application for a working holiday visa. I’ve printed my bank statements from the last 3 months (July, August, September, and at the start of July, I only had £1800 in my bank account but have since built it up to £4000. I’ve seen people say that you need to have the £2500 in your bank account for the 3 months. It doesn’t say that on the embassy website. Will my application get rejected because of this?

I’ve looked at booking flights, so that I would only need £1500 but I’m planning on travelling in February and cannot book a return flight that far ahead.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

  2. When I went, I bought round trip with return the latest I could get and changed the return date later, ended up being free for me,but it could be max one year apart between the two flights, so if you decide to go on a trip to Korea, return to Japan for 90 days once your visa expire, you would not be able to change the return date after that.
