Hi everyone! I am in Malaysia, and I am applying for my DTV at the consulate in Penang. My 500,000 have been deposited for more than 3 months but divided into 3 different bank accounts, they asked me for a financial statement of the 3 months plus the bank balance of the 500,000, but I have already loaded it 3 times and they continue to ask me for it. Is it possible that I have to put all the money in a single account or the process will not proceed? Thanks to those who can answer me.

TLDR : Answer Summary

An individual applying for a DTV visa at a consulate in Penang is facing issues with their financial statements, as they have deposited 500,000 Baht across three different bank accounts. Despite sending the required documentation multiple times, the consulate continues to request additional information. Community members suggest consolidating the funds into one account to simplify verification and address the consulate's requirements.

I would resend and also include a screenshot of the conversion from your currency balance to Thai Baht. I also had the 500k over two accounts.

Good luck

it was a different embassy however in the application process I was asked for the financial statements twice, on the second time I submitted a screenshot of my currency conversion and it moved to pending approval the next day. Just trying to help.

What type of accounts are they? They need to allow instant access to the money

can you withdraw all of the money from all 3 accounts instantly or do any of them require that you ask a number of hours or days before you can withdraw all of the money?
