Can I show my savings as the block amount for visa purposes in Ireland?

Yes, you can use your personal savings as proof of funds for your Ireland student visa. A blocked account is not required; regular bank account savings are acceptable if you can show immediate access to the required amount for tuition and living expenses.
Make sure your bank statements are recent, clearly show your name and account details, and cover the minimum funds needed. Leap can help you prepare these documents correctly.
