D-4 financial evidence: balance commonly required
Widely quoted as though it were a statutory constant. It is not — it is set by the institution and the mission handling the application, and schools genuinely differ. Recording it as an observation rather than a rule is the honest treatment, and it is exactly the sort of figure that moves without any legislative change.
- Applies to
- D-4 applicants, as required by the institution and the consulate

What we have recorded
- 2026-09-09USD 10,000 (common), ₩8m at some schools
USD 10,000 in an English balance certificate is the level several universities state for D-4 applicants. Other schools state a won figure — ₩8,000,000 or above — which is materially lower. There is no single common standard: the requirement depends on nationality, the mission, and the school. Issue date of the certificate, how long the funds must have been held, and whether a parent's account is acceptable are separate conditions on top.

One reading so far. This becomes a history the first time the figure moves while we are watching — which is the part that cannot be reconstructed later.
