So you earned $2000 a month for the past 6 months and that was enough proof of funds? You didn’t have a total of 500,000 baht/ $15k in your bank for proof?

Do you have to use a utility bill as proof of location or can you use a cell phone bill or bank statement for example?

The way you phrased this, you didn't really have $14,000 saved up but had collectively earned that in 6 months? Or am I misreading
Lon *****
ORIGINAL POSTERCorrect! Collectively earned 90% of it in 6 months in one account.

Did you have to contact them for the financial evidence blessing? Im going through the washington DC embassy, I wonder if it will be different.Trini **************************
@Jason **********
are you applying soon? I think mine will be going thru the DC office also. I'm in AtlantaJason ***********
Yes, I plan to submit mine next week. You'll also have to use the DC office. When are you planning on submitting yours?

ORIGINAL POSTER@Jason **********
No contact for a financial blessing. I am a W-2 employee and also wanted to show the monthly passive income. I guess I could have submitted only the current month statements.Jason ***********
Oh I see, thanks for the reply, and congrats! :)

Got it. Thanks for the update. That's an amazing "relaxation" of the rule (when you consider people with brokerage accounts are being rejected at some embassies)Lon *****

Congratulations 👏👏👏 on your DTV visa issued by the Thai Consulate in New York City.
