I will need to transfer funds to one account to show for the 500 Thb but I will need to send it back to my other accounts the following day. Would I be able to do this if I get the statement showing 500thb on the day it was deposited or does the money need to stay in my account for a certain amount of time. Also, what is the best document to show for the funds? Is a downloaded pdf of my Bank statement?

TLDR : Answer Summary

You can transfer the funds back to your other accounts after showing the deposit for 500 THB, but it is advisable to retain the amount for a certain period, as requirements may vary depending on the embassy or consulate. A proper bank statement that includes your name and address is necessary—while some places may accept only one month of statements, others might require 3-6 months. A simple PDF of an incoming wire may not be sufficient.

You need to show a proper bank statement with your name and address on it. Some embassies/consulates have requested a 3-6 month history of statements, others didn’t care and one month was enough. It depends on where you apply but a proper conplete statement is important, not a pdf of an incoming wire. Some banks only generate that once a month.

Canada (Ottawa) was very strict with my friends application as to the supporting documents but his TD bank statement (instant printed pdf) was not questioned. I assume the YVR follows the same rulebook as YOW Hope it helps!
