Anonymous participant 912 i think you misunderstood what OP said, there’s nothing indicating he was scraping by. Quite the opposite actually they way it reads…

And no, while the answer is somewhat obvious, not pointless

A single medical appointment pdf from a Thai neurologist

@John ******

huh, ongoing treatment yes. But planned appointments 6 months in the future? Nahhhh, i didn’t and I’ve never heard that before. What embassy asked for that?

Anonymous participant 689 that would be tm47

The Dutch embassy wanted a letter stating i was authorized to work full time/year around in Thailand.

The 500k should be in a current account in your name to ensure you have funds to cover emergencies you may encounter. It should be immediately liquid/available. They may accept sponsorship letter and bank statements from a legal spouse. Some embassies also demand the balance must have been above 500k equivalent for 3 or 6 months.

Based on your description, it doesn’t sound like you qualify for DTV based on remote work.

Carry on as usual 🤷🏻‍♂️
