Can I apply for a DTV visa in Thailand with a joint bank account, and do I need to be the main account holder?

The discussion revolves around the use of a joint bank account when applying for a DTV visa at the Thai Consulate in Los Angeles. Community members share conflicting information regarding the requirements: while some suggest that if using a joint account, the funds must total double the 500,000 baht requirement, others mention that providing proof of relationship may be enough. One commenter advises against relying on email communication with the consulate, suggesting a phone call instead. There is also mention of expected wait times for responses from the consulate.
