ORIGINAL POSTER
If someone has had the experience of applying through the UK office for a workstation DTV - as a freelancer - did they want to see a specific amount of monthly income (as in something deem reasonable to live on as a montly allowance) or is it mainly based on the savings? I ask because I have more than the required amount in savings, but I have cut my work down for a few months, and so really only earn pocket money at this point. Is it best to increase my work to show a higher monthly income, or is it not relevant? thanks for any insight.

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for the workstation DTV visa as a freelancer through the UK office, it is important to provide evidence of your income. While there is no official minimum income requirement, having verifiable income contracts is beneficial. It's advisable to show regular income from active contracts rather than relying on savings or minimal earnings, as only "pocket money" could raise concerns about your application. A higher consistent monthly income may improve your chances, as some applicants have reported success with incomes around 20,000 THB per month.

There is no minimum income requirement. You have regular income so provide the contracts etc for that. Having more than the required 500k is good to show.

Yes as a freelancer you need to have active verifiable contracts with recurring revenue
