@Andrew *******

you mean not using multiple account? If I move everything into one, I would reduce the length of time the required balance has been maintained in one account

@Andrew *******

Thank you. Since I have been maintaining around USD 5,000 in each of my two personal bank accounts, would it be better to transfer the funds into one account and add approximately USD 8,000 to meet the requirement in a single account?

Or is it preferable to leave the funds as they are, considering that moving them now would reduce the length of time the required balance has been maintained in one account?

I just want to understand which option would strengthen the application.

@Andrew *******

Thank you. Do I need to put 15-17k USD in my personal bank account and wait 3 months? I want to apply from Manila

Manila

Thank you

@Andi **********

Thanks, do you know if manila allows it?

I thought I could have avoided keeping 15k usd sitting for 3 months in my personal bank account simply by shoving them other accounts

@John *********

for how long do I need to keep 0 sitting in my personal bank account?

@Andi **********

I’m not in the us at the moment I’m in south east Asia

If there is a place where they don’t need to have 0 baht sitting for 3 months or more in my personal bank account, I’ll fly there

DTV_Begpacker is there a list of different consulate that shows for how long I need to keep 0 baht in my personal account ?
