Should I submit contracts from both companies when applying for a visa to work remotely in Thailand?

I'm applying from Vancouver. I have contracts with 2 companies: a travel agency and as a real estate agent.I have worked remotely as both in the past and both companies are fine with this. Both of them state that I'm an 'Independent Contractor'. Neither of them mention working remotely,. Should I submit both, or just one, with my application. Should i ask each company to add a note mentioning that working remotely is ok? Financially I more than satisfy the requirements. Appreciate any advise.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is applying for a visa from Vancouver and is considering whether to submit contracts from two companies where they work as an independent contractor. They ask if they should submit both contracts or just one and if they should request the companies to note that remote work is acceptable. Community members suggest submitting documents from each company that explicitly state the user is authorized to work remotely in Thailand, as this is a requirement for visa approval.

Most embassies want to specifically see the wording "authorized to work remotely in Thailand".

As a real estate agent are you self employed ?

if so, submit as a self employed agent , with letter from yourself stating you can work remotely and a contract from yourself stating the same. I included screen shots of any social media related to my business as well as my license.

I recommend submitting documents from each company explicitly stating that you are a fully remote worker with the authorization to work for them in Thailand. That's what I did and my application was approved with no request for additional documents within 4 business days.
