I have been advised that I need to submit 3 months' bank statement with the naturalisation application although I am employed and work fulltime. Could you please advise whether there is a requiement for minimum balance. I am not claiming any benefits. There was only £200 in my last bank statement. Will I be rejected if I submit the application now? Thank you very much.

I have an application pack from Jersey Immigration. 3 months' bank statements are listed in the document checklists. They also require 3 months' utility bills as well. The application form is the same as the one on the homeoffice website, but there are several extra forms to fill in. Maybe the application requirements and procedures are different from those applications submitted in mainland UK.
Has anyone applied in Jersey before?

You are mis-lead. Check guidelines of your form it does says all.

On the guidence, bank statements are needed if the applicant is self-employed. I don't know why they ask me for bank statements. I am scared that my application will be rejected because I only have a small balance on my bank account. Has someone ever been rejected because of this?
