Again, thanks. I spent many months in Thailand this year already, and did three runs to Cambodia because I was delayed in my departure. Now I’m done with all that and want to do a non O retirement visa with annual extensions. It’s the best option for an old songwriter who just didn’t get that break. 😬

Thanks. Showing funds in a bank is no problem but I think the DTV requires a higher monthly income than I can show proof of.

@Andrew *******

Thanks but from what I’ve studied I do not meet the requirements for a DTV due to lack of monthly income.

You’re an amazing contributor to this group. Even with your info my concern is that my account here has almost no money in it right now. In two months or so I can jam $26,000 USD in to provide that “last bank statement” but wouldn’t they react badly seeing my account went from a $1000 to $26,000?
