OP@Zachari ********
my husband and I applied separately as nomads bc we needed to be in Thailand soon and the dependent had to wait until the main person got approved to file for dependency w/ the same price and most same requirements and my husband and I both work remote…. We wanted to do the application together on the same day.

Congratulations 🎉 may I ask, were you in pending approval at any time or just pending document check? Trying to get a range of what can be expected at each stage. Thanks. 🙏 and congrats again. That’s gotta feel good.

OP@Tai ******
not that I know of. After asking for additional docs the approval came the same day so I very well could have been in another status momentarily but I didn’t check.
