I have to move back to UK after living abroad for many years. The mortgage advisor I saw said that I don’t need any pay slips or anything to show the source. I’m just about to close my bank account Overseas.... anyone have any advice?
I’m not coming up with any searches on this forum.... keeps on timing out l

Your solicitor will want to check your source of founds and will have their own requirements (and your mortgage advisor ought to be aware of that!). I can't think of a reason for keeping the account open? As long as you keep your statements.0

Get a solicitor to do what? Do you mean get some initial advice about what their anti-money-laundering requirements will be? Yes, they should be able to do that.0 -
If anything, money from overseas is likely to be scrutinised more carefully, so I'm not sure why he gave that advice.

Its been sent by myself to myself.... how would I get a solicitors advice about what I need to provide for a mortgage? Is there a special type or will anyone do? I’m a newbie to this. Ta.0 -
