Hello everyone,

I’ve been following the posts in this group for the past few months and have gathered a lot of helpful information. However, I still have a specific question and would appreciate your advice. What would you do in my situation?

Key Information:

1. I live in Europe, in Country X (my home country), but I am employed by a multinational company in Country Y (also in Europe).

2. I manage three personal bank accounts:

* 1x in Country Y: This is where I receive my salary from the company and keep most of my savings.

* 1x in Country X: I use this for paying a few expenses, mortgages, and receiving rental income.

* 1x Revolut account: Connected to my bank account in Country Y, primarily for personal expenses. I pay mostly everything with Revolut.

3. I own two companies in Country X:

* Company A: I hold 100% ownership, and it deals with IT projects.

* Company B: I have a 25% ownership stake, and it is a gamer product brand.

* I do not withdraw money from these companies in an “official” manner, so there are no personal transactions attached to me from them.

4. I own two rental properties in Country X and earn income as a sole proprietor, which is deposited into my bank account in Country X.

Question:

When submitting the application, what should I include?

Should I list everything (main job + companies + rental units), or focus on just one aspect?

Thank you in advance. If you have any additional tip, please share with me.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The post discusses an individual's complex financial and professional situation, with inquiries about what information to include in a visa application. They have multiple bank accounts, companies in their home country, rental properties, and are currently employed by a multinational corporation. The community offers advice focusing on simplicity, suggesting that the individual should choose one main aspect for the application (like their current employment) and ensure that they meet specific documentation requirements for that route.

Ok at what the requirements are just submit what the embassy is asking for. You obviously qualify. Keep it simple if they want something more they will ask. But most people getting requests for more info are giving wrong criteria. Follow exactly what they want. Good luck

Definitely focus on just 1 thing. Your post if confusing enough (though I understand the situation), it'll definitely be way too confusing for the embassy.

Just pick a route that 1) can provide you with the required paperwork for the work side of things, i.e. a signed/stamped company letter detailing your engagement with the company and explicitly mentioning that you can work remotely AND also can provide you payslips for the past 6 months (some embassies ask for that) AND company registration papers (some embassies ask for that) 2) can provide you with evidence of 500k thb in the account for the past 3-6 months and transactions for the past 3-6 months (as again some embassies ask for that).

If any of the routes you mentioned supply both of the above then just stick to that route and don't overcomplicate things with mentioning others.

What scheme will you apply under? Sounds like remote worker, freelancer, or workcation. Which one? Will the company supply you with adequate paperwork? I'd go with your company in country X and prepare your own contract and certificate of employment authorization to work remotely. Do each of the accounts have sufficient funds to qualify? I'd choose one path but show adequate funding stability.
