Does a transfer to a UK bank account affect the UK visa application process?
I live in the Netherlands. I am planning to visit UK in the year June. I would like to attend to a workshop there, this is the reason of my coming. I will stay in the UK for only a weekend (2 days). I am going to pay 1500 GBP for that workshop in this Monday, via bank transfer.
Here is my question. I guess I will submit my visa application as a Tourist (Standard visitors) visa. I am employed and I have a steady income. Might that money that I am going to pay be interpreted as suspicious by the consulate? Because I will be showing my bank statements.
