Do I Need to Meet Both the Income and Bank Balance Tests for a Non-Immigrant OA Visa?

I'm shutting down this post. I'm seeing information about Australia, information about the consulate in LA, I'm just confused. I'm not going to let this post turn into a "In my consulate, they ask..." thread.

The OP asked about the income test or the bank balance test before the non-OA is issued. The best option is to go to the local consulate (or their website) and ask them. To my knowledge, *no* consulates are issuing visas now because the borders to Thailand are closed.

Where are you applying for it?

I assume a new O-A in your home country.

Actually either or both is accepted...just show enough to be at 800,000 + Thb annually.

Annual pension 1099's and annual Social Security income report used in filing US federal income tax returns acceptable.

You show proof of funds by using a bank in YOUR country and you can show either 65K baht a month or the equivalent in income per month OR you can show 800K baht or the equivalent in the account.
