    Following as coming up to near 6k point after years of saving bits n bats! Can anyone tell me the process of what happens once declare it is straight forward or will you have to send evidence of how you got it up to this point 
    When you inform them you are over the limit they generally ask to see 4 to 6 months worth of your latest bank statements to show the applicable amounts. If you are claiming any disregard amounts, such as CoL payments or benefit back payment, etc, they usually ask to also see the statement that shows you receiving said payment but not all the statements between that and now. 
    Nosey buggers at that point probably close claim they give me next to nothing even tho I’ve nothing to hide I’d find that intrusive for sake of £100 p/m
