Immigration officers and visa agencies often want financial history in a readable table. Convert 3–6 months of statement PDFs into clean spreadsheets whose balances provably reconcile.
How to prepare bank statements for a visa application
Download one PDF per month from online banking covering the required history window.
Convert each PDF in BankSheet — every export carries a balance-verification proof you can show, not just claim.
Stack the monthly sheets into one workbook (or share per-month files) with your application.
Every export carries a reconciliation proof
✓ Opening balance + Σ transactions = closing balance — checked row by row before you export. If the math doesn't hold, you'll see exactly which cell is wrong.
Why BankSheet over manual entry or generic converters
Balances verified row by row — errors are flagged at the exact cell, with a one-click fix for the most common parsing mistakes.
Zero setup — no template configuration; drop the PDF and go.
Privacy by design — files auto-delete within 24 hours, never sent to third-party AI models.
Free during beta — paid plans from $12/mo, well below the $29+ entry price of generic tools.
Frequently asked
Do visa officers accept converted spreadsheets?
Requirements vary by country and visa type — always check the official checklist. Many applicants submit the original PDFs alongside a clean spreadsheet summary; BankSheet keeps the math verifiable so the two never disagree.
Why not just print the original PDFs?
You should keep originals. The spreadsheet exists to make review easy: consistent columns, ISO dates, and balances that reconcile month over month.
How long is my data kept?
Files auto-delete within 24 hours and are never sent to third-party AI models — relevant when the documents are immigration-sensitive.
