hello, i am going to apply for tier 4 visa leave to remain. Can i show my wife's bank statement from home country in respect of maintenance fund? She is here with me in London. I am sending my bank statement as well to HO. Will they consider my wife's name bank statement as maintenance funds? thanks

do you want to use your wife's bank statement to show her maintenance or yours?

You cannot use money in your wife's account as evidence of maintenance funds for yourself (as principal Tier 4 applicant).
Your wife can use money in your or her bank account as evidence of maintenance funds for herself (as dependant of a Tier 4 migrant).

Reading the policy guidance will help you understand the amount of maintenance funds you need to provide evidence of for both you and your dependant(s).
