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
To qualify for a Thai visa, such as the NON-O visa, proof of recurring income must be substantiated by either certified income affidavits from your country's embassy in Bangkok or by bank statements showing 12 consecutive months of transfers from abroad, totaling at least 65,000 THB each month. End of year statements projecting future income are generally not accepted; only documented past transactions are valid.

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
