I'm not great with forms, and the Schengen one was worse than any I've seen. Their financial proof explainer was exactly what I needed to understand the bank letter rules. The VFS staff commented that my file was well-organised. I had friends warn me about common mistakes and none of them showed up here. The explanations of each field are short and human, not legalese. Everything is laid out so even my mum could follow it, and she's 68. Will be using it again for my next trip.
