Well, this is an appropriate reason to be ANONYMOUS.

Probably not a good idea to do this…

I used the Los Angeles Consulate last November.

My account had a LOT more than the minimum amount. I submitted a screenshot of my bank app. 2 weeks later they requested more information and I sent a photo of my latest month bank account on my computer. That was sufficient.

2 weeks later it was all approved.

Be patient.

Make sure you significantly exceed thr minimum amount.

Dear Anonymous,

The most common cause of rejection I see mentioned is incorrect information with your passport.

The system has problems with dates (birthdate and passport validity dates) and records them incorrectly. You need to check and correct the dates.

Also, the system has a lot of trouble with names. It wants family name and first name. It has trouble with middle names. It has trouble with hyphenated names.

The passport data page names must match what you are entering.

Many people from Myanmar have 4 names, so look really carefully at this.

Did the system reject you based on these issues?

Were you asked for more information regarding your bank account or your employment?

Good luck with your next application.

Bangkok Bank update:

I have had this account for several years, initially opened on a tourist visa.

Because of all the confusion about accounts getting closed I visited the local branch today for peace of mind.

They said no problem with older accounts.

For these they look at cash flow to prevent money laundering…Large amount of money in and then out again.

Regular monthly deposits and bills paid online are normal and proper use of the account.

They are contacting people by email if there account issues.

USA passport on DTV visa. Account in Chiang Mai. 5 June 2025.

I hope this helps…..I was really freaked out with all the news of BB accounts getting closed.

Read my post from a few days ago.

This is NOT correct information.

Fabulous ID photo

Maybe they want the 500K in the main bank account for more than "a few days"…..

This looks like spam….delete it

I used the LA consulate for remote worker.

I only submitted one month of the bank account (it was way more than the requirement) and that was sufficient.

I turned on the map app on my iPad and took a picture of the blue dot showing location with the phone. My driver’s license is also in the picture. This was accepted by the Los Angeles embassy. Kap
