TLDR : Answer Summary

The requirement for extensive financial documentation, such as pay slips, bank details, and letters from an employer for an Australian holiday visa, is considered normal. Many commenters shared similar experiences, indicating that these requirements are standard to prove income stability and intent to return to Thailand. This practice aims to ensure that applicants have legitimate reasons for returning home after their visit.

For a visa to the US it's normal, so possibly the same. They want to see that they have a job and good income or savings. A reason for them to return back to Thailand after their trip.

If they're destitute there's a higher chance they are going to work illegally or try to overstay their visa.
