The rule as i know it is that all of your documents relating to your finances should be within the one month of you submitting the online application. So work back from your online submission and the bank statements and your latest payslip should fall within the 28 days.

We understand that you would like to know about the current status of your

your application

Though we try our best to complete the visa application process in 15

Do the contact information such as call record, whats app convo etc have to be dated within the 28 day rule also? Or is that just for wage slip and bank statements?
