UTIAC There is no single, proper test to be applied when assessing the adequacy of maintenance in a working holidaymaker appeal.
The onus is on the appellant to show that he can meet the requirements of para95(v) of HC395. It is for him to explain his plans and how he proposes to maintain and accommodate himself without recourse to public funds.
Whether those proposals are practical can be assessed against any reliable evidence of the likely costs subject to ensuring that a true comparison can be made. However, any such evidence is a guide only and cannot be treated in itself as determinative or as displacing or putting a gloss on the wording of the rule itself.
