What documents and process did you follow to get your visa approved in HCMC?

After 5 Business Days, exactly, I’ve been APPROVED in HCMC! Workcation! I’m on my way back to Bangkok on Saturday 🙌🏽🥳

Editing per request in comments:

I applied on Wednesday, Jan 15th at 3p. On Thurs, they requested 6 months of bank statements (I only submitted sponsorship letters and screenshots of deposits as income, initially). I was approved Thurs, Jan 23rd.

My complete submission was around 90 pages- 45 for Financial and 45 for Portfolio. I compressed right in Adobe to meet 3mb.

Financial Package:

Cover Letter

6 months statements showing just my savings balance at $17k USD.

2 sponsorship letters from clients (I am an independent consultant, I build and manage training platforms, among other operational & finance responsibilities)

6 invoices for my clients (3 for each, with screen shots of payments)

My lease for my condo in Bangkok, with proof of payment
