Just got this request from the Washington DC Embassy. How to proceed?

I don’t understand - I submitted all of these things except the payslip.

How do I proceed? Do I have a new letter written and send the same bank statements or send the three most recent ones? (I had a statement closing after submission of the application)

I sent three different bank statements because my funds are scattered and included a reconciliation. However, when I submitted it the previous three months included some of December because of the statement closing date.

Hi everyone, I'm in Laos Vientiane, waiting for interview in 2 days. Did ever happen to someone to get rejected after the interview? Thank you 😊

Hi everyone,

I’m applying for the DTV Spouse visa from Laos. I already submitted our last 3 bank statements as requested, but they are now asking for an “update” of the bank statements.

I’m not sure what exactly they want me to send this time. Should I just resubmit the same 3 recent statements again, or do they expect newer ones ?

thank you so much for your help.

Hello,

I am planning to go to Penang or Kuala Lumpur to get a non O visa based on marriage after one year of staying here on visa extempts. Anybody knows if the required 400k can be shown in my Revolut account or does it need to be in a traditionl bank ?

Question. Sorry if it’s overly asked.

For retirement visa extensions,

the Thai government website states three ways to show Financial Proof regarding getting an extension. I’m on year three now so want to use the 65k monthly income method.

Here’s the question; for the Bank Deposit method, it clearly states 800k baht must be verified by Thai bank book and verified bank letter

For the monthly income method, it says nothing about Thai bank. Only verified income letter from embassy, or 12 months proof of income by bank statements showing over 65k baht monthly income.

Has anyone ever used foreigner bank statements to make this monthly income verification? Again, Bank Deposit method clearly says Thai bank, where Monthly Income method does not.

Bank Deposit

Monthly Income

Combination.

Thanks.

Does anyone have experience applying at DC Embassy with multiple accounts?

I have the required 500k baht in three different accounts (all with my name on them):

1. Chase Bank Checking

2. Commonwealth Bank Checking (Aus)

3. Chase Bank Savings

What is the best way to present this to the embassy? A cover letter explaining the accounts, along with the 3 months bank statement and a reconciliation of account balances over the last three months - both total and per account?

I have far more than enough funds to meet the DTV Workcation requirement, but the problem is that most of the money has been in a business account for a while. The business account only has my LLC name on the statement. I have proof that I own the LLC and the account as well.

I’ve also heard that some consulates (including rumors of DC) will accept investments as proof of requirement but others won’t.

I have emailed the embassy but have not received a response.

Have been told if you delay sending pension to Thailand till following year no tax is applied if so how is this done or prooved

Hi everyone!

First of all, I’d like to sincerely thank all members of this group for sharing your experiences, insights, and real cases.

It’s incredibly helpful and honestly makes this whole DTV journey feel much more clear and achievable 🙏❤️

I’ve been reading a lot, but I still have a few questions and would really appreciate your advice:

✅1. Workation vs Soft Power (financial requirements)

Am I correct in understanding that there is a difference in how financial proof is evaluated between Workation and Soft Power categories?

🧐Workation seems to imply having a stable ongoing income (like a digital nomad model),

while Soft Power might be more about demonstrating a sufficient total balance on the account.

❓Is this interpretation correct? Or are both categories assessed in the same way in practice?

➡️My situation:

I’m a freelancer based in the Middle East with a small licensed freelance business (trade license).

Due to the current situation in the region, my bank account activity in the past month hasn’t been very active, although I do have the required total balance.

❓Has anyone applied recently from the Middle East?

Have you experienced any issues or additional scrutiny based on that region?

✅2. Bank statements (format issue)

My bank provides statements instantly via email, but they come without a physical stamp (only a digitally printed one).

❓Do you think this could be an issue for the embassy?

Would it be safer to request a hard copy with an official stamp?

🧐Also, if yes — how do people usually handle scanning large statements (3–6 months)?

That would be quite a lot of pages and a heavy PDF file.

➡️Application location

I’m planning to apply in Kathmandu, Nepal.

Russian passport + UAE residency.

Would appreciate if anyone with a similar case could share their experience 🙏❤️

Hi guys could someone please tell me do most immigration offices except bank statements and pass book updated the day before you do your 1yr extension
