How long was the medical appointment for and how was it mentionned in the appointment letter? Did you already pay for this or is it simply a "quote"?

It's described in the letter as an "Initial Consultation". I haven't had a quote or paid anything to date.

Did they *ask* for 2 months of bank statements, or did you supply it just in case?

I supplied 2 months, can't say whether it would be possible on less.

Anonymous participant thanks for sharing your experience and congrats on the successful application. I have a couple of questions please..

Did you use UK or TH bank statements?

And if Thai, were they your own printouts from the banking app? or did you physically get the official statements from your Thai bank?

I’m planning to apply in Jakarta next week so I’m trying to prepare papers properly 🤪

Did they grant 5 years or just the expected duration of treatment?

I'm like everyone else. 10,000 baht?

500,000 is needed. Do you mean you had 510,000 in your account? Also, for how long have the funds been sitting in your account?

There is some confusion as to whether Jakarta needs 500,000 banked for 2 months or just 2 months worth of statements.

I showed a July statement dated (

/2024) with funds reaching 500,000 baht on 26th July and an August statement (dated

/2024). So funds banked for around 6 weeks.

Online appointment or just walk in?

Nope, not a thing. The account had around the equivalent of 250,000 baht from the start of July only reaching the required amount at the end of the month.
