Hi all.

I want to apply from Italy.

No problem for the 500k.

My money are all invested through a broker (Interactive Brokers and Scalable).

Do you think it could be a problem?

Just in case I can sell some investments and buy again later, but I could loose money.

Thank you!

Hello everyone!

I’m new to the group, and was super thrilled to find so many of you posting and referencing so much helpful information!

I have a question I hope I can get clarification on.

This is specifically for the DTV soft power culinary schooling. 

I have my funds in a high yield savings account with Wealthfront and I have access to funds between this account and my personal Wells Fargo account with immediate transfers between the two.

My question is, can I submit the 3 months statement required of my Wealthfront account for proof of funds? Or, does it have to be in my personal checking account?

I really appreciate all of you for taking the time out to read this, and providing me with any helpful information!!

Thank you!! 🙏🏼

Hi everyone, I’m looking for some advice about applying for a DTV.

How long does approval usually take, and what evidence is best to submit? I have a website portfolio that shows my work, but I’m not sure if that’s enough.

For proof of funds, can I use statements from my investments on Freetrade, where my money is currently held? Would that be accepted for the DTV?

I’m currently living in the UK (since July 2025), and before that I was travelling through multiple countries.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Has anyone had to show proof of funds on their 6 month DTV check?

I’m sure this has been asked before but a search could t find exactly what I wanted and so:

Can I use an online ‘instant savings account’ in the UK such as Atom Bank as my proof of funds?

Thank you

Has anyone used investments as proof of funds? I only keep 6 months worth of money in banks(I have low outgoings), the rest is invested. Just need to know if someone has managed to use proof of capital via investments?

Hi, I have a question regarding the proof of 500,000 THB.

I have read several times that the funds must be held in a private account.

I also saw information stating that if the account is officially a personal/private account in the applicant’s name, it is acceptable for the DTV Visa, even if customer payments are received on that account.

Is this correct?

My husband has two sole proprietorships, and the income from one of them is paid into his personal account. Could this be a problem?

As an alternative, would bank statements from Trade Republic also be accepted?

Thank you in advance for your feedback. :)

Hi guys, in terms of the 500k and proof of funds.

Is it safe to give them a statement complete with the Account number, IBAN number etc.

Especially in light of all the frauds and scams going around these days.

Also, do they require a PDF document or will a scanned photo of a paper statement do them?

Thanks

Hi everyone 👋

I’m currently in Hanoi and I want to submit my DTV (workcation) application today. I have a quick question about the “proof of funds”:

• Revolut account, last 3 months of statements. If I export all transactions, it’s 62 pages !

• Do the official monthly statements (1–2 pages each) in English showing my name + period + end-of-month balance ≥ 500,000 THB suffice?

• Or do they need all transaction pages?

Any recent experiences would be super helpful—thanks a lot 🙏
