Concerning the DTV: I'm in America, and the Muay Thai organization has packaged their letters and sent them to me. The letter states that I want to start training in June. On the Thai Embassy visa application, it asks for the flight information and hotel/accomodations information. They ask that entry should be within 3 months and not longer.

I have not purchased a flight or reserved a hotel yet, so my visa application is in saved mode. My bank has issued to me a written statement for required funds, dated April 11. My question is can I delay my return to Thailand until September? If I delay the application, will my bank and the Muay Thai class need to change their dates? If I book the flight for June and reserve a hotel, then apply and get approved, can I cancel the flight, change the flight date to September, will I still have a valid DTV 4-5 months from now? It is possible for me to leave here in July, or earlier, but I have a financial opportunity that's difficult to put aside. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

My friend was asked to upload flight info before is COE application was PRE-approved. We thought that was strange because there is no field in the application for this besides “documents for further consideration”

We bought his flight and uploaded it to the “further consideration” section.

Can someone help and explain what they mean by “We still have no policy.....”?

Is this because we are doing this too far in advance? My friends flight is in October and we are applying through the NYC embassy.

Thanks in advance
