This is a typical requirement, the applicant should prove she/he is able to pay for any incidents while in the country. Schengen countries typically want to see the person has 10.000 EUR in available. That's why WMCH issued a guarantee of 10.000 CHF and put that into the invitation letter. I would recommend to print the statements, blacken any individual namea and fax it to the consulate. /Manuel Am 20.05.2015 22:14 schrieb Tomasz Ganicz <polimerek(a)gmail.com>om>: have sent him a letter of support, but Mexican Consulate in Rome requries from him to provide full 12 month statesments from our accounts (Wikimedia Polska).

In our case, they only wanted to see the balance, not the transaction names. It will look odd but they're not interested in who you're paying, only that you have the money to support the person being sent. Blacking out all of the payee names should be quite simple if you print the statement out and use a slip of paper to cover the payer column?

We had over 1000 individual donations, around 200 membership fees payments, over 500 payments for wikigrants, scholarships, travel reimburesements. To clean it up it is 2 days work for one employee, and the results will be the statement on which 90% of entries will be blackened. 2015-05-20 22:27 GMT+02:00 Schneider, Manuel &lt;manuel.schneider(a)wikimedia.ch <mailto:manuel.schneider@wikimedia.ch>>: This is a typical requirement, the applicant should prove she/he is able to pay for any incidents while in the country.
