Anonymous participant I just submitted my birth certificate that has my parents name so it matched their names on the letter.

I applied through Sydney Australia, my parents deposited day of but they also wrote a declaration saying they would be financially responsible for me if anything happens. This was approved no questions.

Anonymous participant 797 yeah that's why I posted! Because while it's good to be aware, it can cause people unnecessary stress.

Okay so I got approved with a sponsorship letter signed by dad saying he takes financial responsibility for me if need be and that I have access to a "family trust".

My family transferred the AUD equivalent of the 500,000฿. I only had it in for a day. I also uploaded my birth certificate with my parents name on it to prove proof of relationship.

May have been overkill, but I got accepted for workcation.

I'm a freelancer too so what I wrote was a formal letter, on my own company letterhead and stated my situation. I made sure I had my business registration on the letter too.
