Yes, you could apply for your husband as your dependant visa afterward. For this case, you need to provide another 500,000 THB financial proof to the embassy

From our experinces, most of the countries requires at least 3 months, still we have seen that the Phillipines and the UK still accept the money in the account for around 1 month. However, we still strongly recommend you to have the money for at least 3 months as this will help stengthening your visa application a lot

The embassy require above 500,000 THB for each applicant, so you may need to show 1,000,000 - 1,500,000 THB for all the family members

The normal visa process at the embassy may take 2-3 weeks, though we have seen one have received the visa in 7 days.

Still please noted that this will depend on how strength your application is eg. your financial status of 500,000 THB.

you should have the 500K baht in the bank account for 3 months as this would help strengthening your application naturally. Just sharing the experience when we work with a visa agent, for now the embassies in US are quite more strict, so having for 3 months is needed

only savings and current accounts are accepted. investment accounts, crypto wallets, trading accounts are not accepted.

There's no issue applying under Workation as a freelance content creator. Write a cover letter explaining more about your Twitch channel and income you get from there. Include in the letter:

1. Write a short cover letter explaining your income (e.g. $10k/month from Twitch, Patreon, Twitter, etc ), nature of your work and type of content.

2. Explain how you plan to continue your work in Thailand — for example, streaming or creating lifestyle content from here, highlighting Thai food, culture, or just the cost of living/remote work lifestyle. That helps position your relocation under the freelancer narrative.

3. Include links or your socials (Twitch, Twitter, Patreon).

We've seen content creators get approved after explaining their work with the cover letter. The approving officers are not unreasonable, ultimately you have more than enough funds to support yourself in Thailand while living here that is what they are most concerned about. All the best with your application!

Thank you for sharing this! I believe it's a good implementation to reduce the number of shady agents or applicants looking to abuse the system. In our case only the consulates in Vietnam has requested for this confirmation, hopefully this is implemented across the board.

We've had 5 approvals in the past 2 weeks with our students using our cooking school, no rejections recently.

It's not a requirement but it is highly recommend to make it easier for the approving officer to understand your story in a nutshell. Some examples are having multiple bank accounts, having a regular income (which mentioning will strengthen the case), any background history that strengthens your link to Thailand, etc.
