What is the recent experience of applying for a Non-O family/spouse Visa from the US consulate in LA?
Has Anyone applied for a Non-O family/spouse Visa from US (LA) consulate somewhat recently?
I applied for the 1 year -multiple entry visa. [members only]
It doesn't specify about the country of bank statement required for upload, I uploaded my US bank statement with ample funds.
I didn't see a requirement for having 400k in a thai bank.
I plan to open a Thai account and keep 400K thb min for the extension of stay based on marriage.
I am a little bit worried that it says minimum processing time is 15 business days, and that would be about a week before my flight, so I wouldn't have time to reapply if it takes 1 week longer than the minimum time.
Anyone remember how long theirs took at LA-US consulate?

If your visa isn't approved in time you can enter visa exempt and then border bounce within 30 days to activate your non O. Make sure you print your visa out in both cases and show it to the IO with your passport.

Your home bank account statement is fine.

You should be OK... your Visa should be approved soon.
When you get the email with the Evisa in it, PRINT copies of IT OUT and have it available to show Thai Immigration Officers.
AND there's NO requirement to show PROOF of 400,000 Thai baht in a THAI BANK ACCOUNT when you are applying for the visa in the USA
You show the funds being in ANY BANK...
