Will hiring a visa service improve my chances of DTV approval in Thailand?
Hello. I'm applying for the DTV via soft power. My soft power activity offers a visa service for ฿5k. Will hiring this service help to ensure my DTV gets approved? Here are the requirements via the Chicago Embassy, which I would be applying out of online.
It just says "a copy of a recent bank statement". It doesn't give any number of months required. I have 2 months of statements showing a good amount over ฿500k.
I'm currently not employed but receive government benefits which are reflected on my bank statements and are substantial enough to support me while I'm in Thailand. My soft power activity told me this wouldn't be a problem.
Just wondering if the service offers a higher likelihood of approval for me or not, or if I should try to apply on my own.
Thanks for the help and information!

Typically US consulates are okay with 500k ending balance. Send the 2 month of statements you have along with a brief cover letter pointing out/highlight the pension deposits.

The US Thai Embassies and Consulates want to see at least US $16,000 on deposit in your personal bank account.

Just do it yourself, 10's of thousands of people do. Ensure there are zero mistakes in the passport data page upload after the OCR reads and propagates it. Everything else is pretty much answer questions and upload documents.
