Can anyone provide guidance on using an annuity to qualify for the DTV by receiving monthly payments? I receive $1500 USD monthly, and I am married with one son.

As a residents of Texas, USA, I am inquiring about the requirement to maintain $15,000 USD in our account for 3 or 6 months? And if the $15,000 is per person or per main applicant?

Also, do I need to obtain the annuity form and have it apostilled by the state department?

After my visa is approved, should I apply for dependent visas for my partner and son separately or at the same time as my own application?

I would appreciate any guidance on this matter.h lf

Seriously asking for a friend..

US passport

Over 60..

Is there a visa you can get that requires not having XXX dollars.....

Would it be best for someone that wants to hang out in Thailand 6-9 months out of the year and use it as a base for traveling elsewhere ..for a couple years....to get the tourist stamp at the airport and not get a visa?

I'm a bit confused myself at times ..so I don't know what to tell her over here in the states....any help would be appreciated... please and thank you
