DTV approved - 5 business days, 2 additional document requests. Submitted 02 Jan 2025. Approved approx. 4 hours after second document request.

I'm in Australia (a local), run my own company, did not have 500,000tbh in cash to show.

Financial evidence:

- Contents page (found this to be very helpful as my second document request was for the same thing as the first and I forgot to update the contents page)

- Sponsor letter from family member

- Driver's license of family member

- Evidence of the 500,000thb in their accounts (document request updates were for updated statements)

- My personal tax return summary for the last 2 lodged years.

- Company P&L for previous tax year as not yet lodged.

Employment evidence:

- Contents page

- ASIC Company Registration

- Shareholders register of company (showing I'm sole shareholder)

- ABR Company extract

- Letter from company approving remote work

- Employment contract for myself from company (this was an additional document request)

- Link to my company website

- Links to portfolio of existing clients/work.

Thanks to all the comments and answers to other questions in the group, really helped me get this done in record time. Hope the detail helps someone else out!
Answer summary
A local Australian expat shares their successful DTV visa application experience, detailing the documents submitted for both financial and employment evidence, including a sponsor letter from a family member. The visa was approved within five days after submitting additional documents, even without demonstrating the required 500,000 THB in personal funds.
