Financial Issue

I finished my MSc in fall 2010. I am single, no children. I started working 3 months ago. Nonetheless, I do not have sufficient money to show. I could ask my parents to borrow me some money and reach about 50-60% of minimal poverty level. I am not sure what it is better- to be perfectly honest with the CO and tell them that I do not have sufficient money or to show bank statement where CO will clearly see that some money were recently transfered to my account and tell them that it is a loan from my parents.

Any suggestion or advice would be greatly appreciated!
 
The papers you sign are stating you were honest...so I suggest to be honest.

I was told by my parents "it is easier to remember the truth than to remember a lie, and a lie can hunt you for years"

If you are single you don't need any large amount in your account. Go with what you have and if they ask you of any financial statement, show it to them.
 
In my case, I didnt show them the whole statement, just the amount on the account,
What you should do is to bring your bank statements, but also your last 3 paychecks slips, and your employment contract with annual salary on it...
