Check with the embassy that they actually accept the bank certificate. I provided a bank certificate to Taipei and they said they do not accept bank certificates. I pointed out the financial evidence detail in your OP, but they would not budge. Luckily it was an in-person application, I was able to rush to my hotel and get a bank statement printed out to avoid a rejection.

4 weeks for me due to having to self translate bank statements, contracts etc.

David Vigar ok..your current visa is best.

David Vigar DTV suits you better as you want to work remotely

A cert of employment and income statement along with a letter detailing teaching non Thai students plus the usual CV, bank statements with income deposits etc

There have been a few posts of success from Manilla which detail their application.You can email them, they are very responsive to emails.

Get a METV, gives you a 9 month stay.

Easiest would be the METV gives you 6-9 months multi entry depending when you extend.
