Proof of Deposit not been asked for

Money Laundering Regs - legal requirement to prevent laundering of criminally sourced monies.
Lender Source of Deposit - if requested, requirement is re above explanation (i.e determine applicants ability to budget save and evaluate the applicants own exposure in the property)
You are quite right ... if the q is asked, there are numerous ways to "fudge the explanation " .. unfortunately if any part is gifted and not discosed, the source of deposit quoted would not be factual. Resulting in the submission of a app supported by in-accurate data - whether there would be any future fall out, would depend upon if its discovered .....
Family gifts (even in excess of 5%) are normally perfectly ok, but they still need to be revealled if requested.
Hope this helps
