AnonymousWallaby2364 at Hanoi they rarely reject people after you get the status change from pending document check to pending approval. Only if there is something major found by the senior approval officer. Some people got rejected because the money was not there enough or big recent deposits that are just not justified by applicant. My wife is currently waiting for her application ar Hanaoi as well. She applied for the DTV dependent visa this past Tuesday. On Wednesday ( next day) her application went into pending approval NO FURTHER DOCUMENTS REQUESTED so she is along with you for the adjudication officer to approve her application. From what i have seen they do adjudications in batches on Wednesdays and Sundays in Hanoi. I have a strong feeling yours will be adjudicated this sunday. I hope my wife also gets approved too. Good luck

Anonymous participant it all depends on how the embassies are operating when you apply. If i were you i would apply as soon as possible as i dont see this visa staying in its current form a long time. As for now Hanoi and Jakarta based on reports seem to have faster approvals and not not many requirements. When you apply abroad it takes longer but again you dont have to worry about extra hotel nights flights etc. i have seen reports of Los Angeles taking over a month for approvals so take that into consideration if you decide to apply USA. Hope this helps 🙏

I just did my application in Hanoi i think if you prepare well your application you should be fine for the timeframe you are working with. I got mine in 3 business days but SENT THEM A LOT OF DOCUMENTS SO I COVERED ALL MY CORNERS. Im going to post here my application process so you can see what i did. Good luck 🙏

I think is better to do the sponsor route. They want to see the money seasonal. If you have recent deposits they might suspect someone borrow the money and ask for more paperwrok. They really just want to make sure you can support yourself and that the money comes from outside thailand. I also would like to suggest you to apply in asia it seems the consulate and embassies abroad take more time processing applications. Jakarta and Hanoi seem to be the best places at the moment . Good luck🙏

right now is the best place to go if you want an expedited process. Always check your docs before you apply. If your application is fine they will grant you the visa there .Good luck if you have any questions feel free to ask 🙏
