DTV Visa as a Dependent Spouse – Concurrent or Sequential application?

Hi everyone! My husband and I are preparing our DTV applications. He will apply as the Main Applicant (standard employment). I will apply as his Dependent because my income is in crypto and my contract is under strict NDA, making a primary application too risky. We are legally married.

For those who have applied as a dependent recently, I’d appreciate your insights:

* Timing: Should we submit our e-Visa applications simultaneously, or is it better to wait until his primary DTV is approved before I submit mine?

* Dependent's Income: Does the embassy scrutinize the dependent's finances/work, or are the marriage certificate and the primary applicant's bank statements sufficient?

* How smooth was the process for the dependent?
Answer summary
The post discusses concerns regarding the application process for a Dependent DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) in Thailand, where the user is applying as a dependent spouse while their husband applies as the main applicant. Key questions raised include whether to submit both applications simultaneously or wait until the husband's approval, the scrutiny of the dependent's finances, and the smoothness of the dependent process. Responses indicate that the dependent must wait for approval of the main applicant before applying, and proper financial documentation is required for the dependent application.

You can't apply until your husband has been approved as you need to quote his DTV reference number in your application. Whether you also need 500k or whether your husband can simply supply a sponsorship letter varies by consulate

He has to get his and then you apply after his approval. You have to show a separate 500k Baht for your application. Either as a separate account in your name or 1 million in a joint account.
