Good morning, I have a question about proof of recurring income.

Does the proof need to be in the form of bank statements or will an end of year statement be acceptable?

The end of year statement lists income for the next coming year.

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a Non-OA visa in Thailand, acceptable proof of recurring income typically includes 12 months of bank statements showing monthly transfers of at least 65,000 THB from abroad or a certified income affidavit from your country's embassy in Bangkok. Projected income statements, such as end-of-year statements, are not permissible as they focus on past transactions. It's crucial to maintain consistent monthly deposits without any missed months.

If you are really applying for the Non-OA visa then all the information you require is here assuming you will use the Washington consulate

You need a 12month bank statement and probably 12 months of credit advice notes if your statement doesn't prove it comes from abroad..my husband did it last week

So let’s say I change my direct deposits to a new bank in November, I need to have 10 months from my 1st bank and 2 months from my new bank at the 1st of the year, when I intend on tending my visa application, and they will not accept either my VA award letter nor my yearly COLA increase notification and SSA yearly notification.

They are not looking for projected figures, they are looking for previous transactions.

the only proof of income would either be a certified income affidavit of your country's embassy in Bangkok, OR a bank statement of 12 months of consecutive transfers coded as coming from abroad of a minimum of 65,000 THB into your Thai bank account, month for month not missing one single month
