Who is requesting what?
If you posted because you want an answer, you really must give us more to work from.
Is this the result of a routine audit?

Well it is the lender that asked for bank statements and some other questions
When called they said this is because of spot check . Not sure what this means though0 -
It means your case has been pulled for a routine audit.
They have requested the documents which would normally be required for a full status case, such as;-
ID/PoA
Three months payslips
Three months bank statements
Proof of deposit.
This happens. You need to submit your documents ASAP and this will be a simple, short process.I am a mortgage broker.

Thanks for this.
I was really stressed
Does this mean the initial under writter randomly issues the offer?
They did ask for my payslip at the begining before issuing offer and now need bank statement0 -
Halifax?
You are asked for just one payslip as you score higher than others on its internal scoring chart (nothing to do with the Experian 999 bo**ox).
Then, one in twelve cases is pulled for routine audit where the usual "full status" documents are requested.
