I went back and checked to see if there were any more emails requesting more documents. There weren’t. I went back-and-forth with the embassy a couple of times on September 24 providing documents. even though I submitted bank statements saying I had ฿800,000 in the bank, they still wanted to see $2000 a month income, which was going into another account.
On the evisa site there’s kind of a timeline. it’ll say awaiting payment, pending document review, and then pending approval. So I’ve made it past payment and document review.
 I wonder why they require flight information when you apply for the visa? It seems unfair that they make you book a ticket and then leave you hanging like this.  it’s not as if the visa is only good for entry on one day.
