Hiya. By sending in the form, you commit that you have the funds. I was not checked. Depending on how long you plan to be here, 4%000 is not that much money. All that the government wants to make sure is that you can contribute to the economy, and not be a drain on resources.

Hope you have a wonderful time when you're there!!
