Is the ITR (Income Tax Return) requirement of 10-12 lakh per year applicable for every country or only for some countries in UK/Canada?
It depends. The ITR (Income Tax Return) requirement of ₹10 - 12 lakh per year is not a universal rule for all countries.
Each country sets its own financial requirements for visa applications:
- UK: You must show funds to cover tuition and living expenses, not a fixed ITR amount. For example, living costs are typically £1,334 - £1,846/month (subject to change), depending on location.
- Other countries: Canada, the US, and others have their own financial proof standards, which may differ from the ₹10 - 12 lakh ITR figure.
Always check the current financial documentation rules for your specific destination. If you need country-specific guidance, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
