They gave me a 5 year extension to my ancestry visa in March but I am going to do the ILR thing anyway as I want to get this all out of the way. I am in London but will do my in person in Birmingham in Nov. as there did not seem to be any appointments in Croydon. I have been self employed the whole time I have been here except for a few clinical trials that I have done. As far as I am aware I will have to show my last 3 bank statments and I was wondering what kind of balance I need to show for ILR?

My Aug. balance is about 1200. My Sept. is about 1100 and I will have a big jump in my Oct. balance as I get my drug study money so it will be over 3000.

Am I good to go?

There is no requirement for a min. "bank balance" for settlement applications. All you need to do is provide evidence(s) to prove that you can maintain yourself (and dependant, if any) without recource to public funds.
