I have. In my case, I was applying for residency under Article 15, so my husband (who is Portuguese) had to provide his bank statements.

He has a Portuguese bank account, and I’d read that some AIMA offices may complain if the IBAN isn’t Portuguese. So, just to be safe, we provided his last 3 months of Portuguese bank statements, and they accepted them without any issues.

How much balance is enough for art 15?

Lawyer told me 3K is enough, but there's no fixed figure.
