How should I address the additional financial documentation request for my DTV workcation visa application?

Question

Hello! First-time poster. Looking for advice on an additional financial document request.

I applied for the DTV (workcation) on 10/6/26. Same day, I was emailed a request for additional documentation.

Doc 1: Job details. Pretty straightforward, ig. Duties, salary, confirmation that it's remote work.

Doc 2: financial documents. Specifically: "other fin. docs  such as savings and investments accounts for the past 3 months to be combined with the original statements to ensure a total balance of $16K per person per month."

My issue: All of my money is invested in interest bearing accounts through WISE. One if USD, the other is EUR. The original statements are from those counts. The combined total at time of application was 30K. How do I handle this? Should I resubmit the same documents (as I've seen other ppl do) Should I consolidate all of the funds into USD? Something else?

Thanks!

A first-time poster is seeking help regarding a request for additional financial documentation after applying for a DTV (workcation) visa. They need advice on proving they have the required $16,000 balance per month in various accounts held through WISE in USD and EUR. The responses advise resubmitting statements with a detailed summary showing each month's balances converted to USD, along with official bank statements, rather than consolidating the accounts.

Hello welcome and good job submitting early. This request is common for DTV workcation.

They want to see three months history for all accounts that make up your total balance. Since your money is in Wise USD and EUR interest accounts you can resubmit same statements but add more clear proof. Make one summary page that shows total in USD for each month for past three months. Show USD account balance plus EUR account converted to USD using Wise rate on that date. Highlight ending balance for each month.

Do not need to move all to USD if you show conversion clearly. Attach three months PDF for each Wise jar or account and include Wise official statements not just screenshots. Add short cover letter that says all funds are yours in interest bearing accounts and total is 30K which is above 16K per month. Many got approved after doing this second submit.

For sample cover letter and how to format financial docs for DTV you can check Unlock Thailand by Isla Rey on Amazon. It has templates for Wise accounts and workcation that many remote workers used to pass this extra check.

I’m curious why they want to see investments. Are some months under the threshold?

As Wise is not a bank you'll need to determine if the consulate you applied through will accept statements from them

The embassy wants to verify that your combined funds met the required $16,000 threshold for each of the past three months, not just on your application date.

I recommend submitting complete three-month statements for both Wise accounts, together with a one-page financial summary showing each account's monthly balance, its equivalent in Thai baht (THB), and the combined total for each month.

There is no need to consolidate the funds into USD solely for this purpose, as transferring money now would not demonstrate your previous balances.

Official statements exported as pdfs from my account

What actual financial documents did you submit? Were they actual statements from your personal accounts issued by your banks, or screen shots? They want official bank statements for the last three months.
