    Good to know.

    So if that covers whether you've been in prison or not, what would they be looking for in the bank statements?

      Whether you are associated with certain terrorist/political activities?

        See how desperately short of funds you are?
        Check whether you have a gambling habit?

            From what I was told it was just to make sure your just carrying on normally in the community. Carrying on your normal life at home, not in prison, no long holidays in Afghanistan and no weekend trips current or ex. Soviet states.

            As I say really depends on exactly what type of check. Is it just financial or security related.

              Didn't you Instagram before/during/after pics? You must have some evidence that you did what you said you did. Unless you didn't...

              What were you banged up for?
