Dext + Visa Application: Complete Workflow
Preparing for visa application and using Dext? UK visa applications (Tier 1, Tier 2, spouse, student) require bank statements proving financial capability. The Home Office needs clear, organised financial evidence. BankScan AI bridges the gap between your bank's PDF statements and Dext's import feature.
BankScan AI → Dext for Visa Application
Convert bank statement PDFs to CSV formatted for Dext import. Convert your bank statements to structured Excel spreadsheets that clearly show your balance history, income sources, and regular savings — formatted for visa evidence bundles.
How It Works
Upload your bank statement PDF
Supports all major banks. Upload 6 months for most visa categories; 12 months for Innovator Founder and some ILR applications of statements.
AI formats for Dext
Output as CSV with N/A — Dext is not a direct import target. BankScan AI outputs feed into the same accounting software that Dext publishes to (Xero, QBO, Sage). — dates in DD/MM/YYYY (for onward import to accounting software).
