Anonymous participant no worries mate , I do feel as though there is people in this group that will say things that are not quite accurate or true ( it may be translation issues from there language) but you will probably find the actual truth is they may of had it in a fixed term deposit or something and called it and “investment account”
Has to be a bank account mate… as you would know the share market could go to zero tomorrow.
I applied out of Aus and just sold my shares for a week , deposited the money into commbank , got a proof of balance statement , then brought shares again.
It’s not the most productive thing but it’s doable
And as far as income / bank similar to retirement visa it’s not the same.
To be honest there is actually no income requirements for the DtV only the 500k , but you may have to show bank statements to prove your actual working.
For me I used
- employment contract
-proof of balance.
- and a letter from my employer stating I can work remotely in south east Asia
