Now I am worried that I won't be able to get the visa, because they seem to have a lot of ridiculous requirements about how you have been saving up for the trip. I have enough money, but some is in cash... and they don't want "lump sum deposits" into the bank account. Also, I have not been working recently (I have been studying). Does anyone know how closely they follow all these rules about the money in your bank account?? Are people rejected from the WHV because of these technicalities?
