What steps did you take to get your DTV Visa approved from Washington DC?
Approved through Wash DC
Really appreciate all the information I’ve read here over the months. Soft power was Bangkok Thai Cooking Academy. Their DTV package consisting of 10 classes over 6 months.
I submitted one month of financials because I had seen that’s all Washington DC really required, but they requested the full three months.  Approved the day after I sent them. 
There is no spot for a cover letter when applying, so I added one to the top of my bank statement. 
Then added an additional cover letter when I submitted the rest of the bank statements. 
The whole process was eight days. 
Woohoo!

Thank You for your helpful report 👍
Congratulations 👏👏👏
PRINT OUT THE EMAIL THAT HAS YOUR DTV VISA.
That's what you should do... print it out.
You may have to show PROOF of your DTV Visa to airline staff on check-in for your flight ✈️ to Thailand...even to the connecting airline staff. Or to the land border crossing entry Thai Immigration Officer.
Upon arrival into Thailand, show the DTV visa to the Thai Immigration Officer and look at the STAMP placed in your passport to be sure you are STAMPED in for 180 days.
