It sounds fishy. My bank is Chase Bank and generated the statement for my I-134 in less than 5 minutes, and no question asked. What about going to another branch and try to request it again?

London is not picky. Two things at most is all you need. One would do it. If you have an employer letter, they often take that as the only proof. They don't even require a tax return for the I-134, but if you have one, it is a good proof too. Forget the bank.

My bank wouldn't either. Prepaid checking account. They don't operate the same way. :P

I provided:

  1. my last 3 years' tax returns
  2. most recent paystubs
  3. letter from employer

I also had on hand in case they needed it (as I was laid off just prior):

  1. Offer of Employment, where I start on X date for X salary.
  2. Contract with several freelance clients showing I make enough freelancing to support us all.
  3. Unemployment Payments I am also receiving.
  4. Paystubs from my clients.
  5. Printouts from my online bank showing my savings amount.

Hope that helps.
