I am applying for the DTV visa. I have the required funds and evidence of such, however I spread my funds across multiple accounts. It's a safe practice in case a card does not work, is blocked, lost, stolen, or if the bank shuts down (First Republic bank in the US).

My question to the group, has anyone applied and been approved providing bank statements from multiple accounts?

Additionally, when applying in the US do they consider retirement accounts as funds (not required me for) but I was curious since I have so much in my retirement accounts.

Thanks everyone!

I plan on applying for my OA visa in April. My question is for the 800,000 baht required, can I use my brokerage account from my IRA as my bank statement? I have more than enough in that account? Or do I need to remove it and put it in a bank?

I have access to it immediately if I need it as I’m over 59 1/2.

I just do not want to pull it out if I don’t need to...
