I have never had to show any bank account info either when getting my cat-o in the US or when applying for the 1-year extension here in thailand (2x now). In Thailand I have just had to show I meet the min 40k a month income which is easily done by getting the affidavit at the US embassy.
just to clarify.. this is all done based on support of a thai family. Edited by Jayman, 2012-02-12 16:21:00. #53

You either show 400,000 in the bank for 2 month OR you show an income of 40,000 a month. #54

I did my extension based on marriage about 2 months ago and for the first time (in 3 years) i was asked to provide copies of the statements from my pension fund... previously i used letter from the consulate here in CM, but the officer told me that i did not need that letter (there went 50 bucks!) and to come back next day with some copies of the payment vouchers in my name. I did, no problem. Officer told me to save my money and next year only bring in copies of some of the statements. Again - all this in CM immigraion

Very interesting. Has anyone else had such an offer to not require embassy letter?

For me I have no pension receipts or pay check stubs to show them. For me my only proof of income is the Embassy letter. I never thought that the Embassy letter was a requirement but rather another choice to show proof of income. I always thought that you could prove your income via other means if you wanted to. Maybe I made the wrong assumptions here as for me the letter was the only proof I have (other than just showing my thai bank book with regular incoming wires)

Sorry i forgot to say that i dont have any proof of my salary here in Thailand.. Just bank statements showing my Army pension that goes into my bank.. Will this be accepted at the british Embassy.? I am certainly no expert of this but in my experience the British Embassy is reasonable if you can show sufficient evidence of income. I would have thought that Bank Statements showing regular income, especially if it is referenced Army, Gov or similar would be sufficient. I just have a letter from my Solicitor stating my rental income. The Embassy's letter states that Mr........... has produced a letter from his solicitor showing his rental income is GBP........... On the two occasions I have done this I have had neither a problem with the Embassy or the Immigration. Edited by Billmont, 2012-02-13 18:14:29. |
