Your application will not be refused unless your case worker is blind, if he does that, go for appeal and honorable judge will be there with an eye opener.
No need of stamping or extra work etc. Simply highlight closing balance of each day on your bank statements of last 90 days.
Banks normally post payments first even if receipts take place earlier than payments.
Best of Luck.
Not sure what the basis of above is and how you make the statement with such an authority. The
Guidance Notes (para 213) say (in relation to the Bank Statements):
The personal bank or building society statements should clearly show:
• the applicant’s name;
• the account number;
• the date of the statement;
• the financial institution’s name and logo;
• any transactions during the 90 day period;
• that there are enough funds present in the account (the balance must always be at least £800) covering the 90 day period before the date of application
Similarly the
UKBA website states:
The balance must show that you have had at least £800 in your account at all times over the three-month period for applications submitted within the United Kingdom, and £2,800 for applications submitted outside the United Kingdom.
Lastly the Immigration Rules
Appendix C say:
(b) I f the applicant is applying for entry clearance, leave to enter or leave to remain as a Tier 1 Migrant (other than a Tier 1 (Investor) Migrant), a Tier 2 Migrant or a Tier 5 (Temporary Worker) Migrant, the applicant must have had the funds referred to in (a) above for a consecutive 90-day period of time, ending no earlier than one calendar month before the date of application;
I recognise that the Case worker "may" focus on the end of day balance in some of the cases (one needs to be lucky for that), but nothing stops him from rejecting the application if the statement shows a drop in funds below the minimum required. That said, if the OP is not so lucky, he can use the evidence as suggested by other members above to appeal (if available).
