I am requested additional documents. Is buying onward ticket a viable option here?

Do I have to provide a contract for my address in Thailand if I will be renting a condo? (Which is the address I’ve put in the application, so I don’t think I can just last minute put a hotel address?

Is it ok if there will be a few days of difference for date of entry and exit from the one submitted in the application? (I can’t actually remember which exact date I put and also can’t remember which flight number I put for the exit)…

It doesn't have to be the exact dates or accommodation mentioned in the application which states intended date of arrival and flight number.
