Can I qualify for a marriage visa extension in Thailand with a monthly income of 40,000 THB transferred from abroad?

Sure seems to me like this topic is fixing to come off the proverbial rails :O I believe the O/P (

@Cbr ******

) has the information they are seeking.

Being Canadian they CANNOT use monthly transfers into the country to meet the proof of funds for a marriage extension. They use the embassy letter OR they bank the money.

Sorry if a dumb question, but ok 40,000k must come in but what's to stop you from transferring back out (or withdrawing cash, redeposit to different account and then transferring back)?

Okay, let's put this one to bed.

IF your embassy here still issues the affidavit of income from abroad letter (unlike the UK, US, and Australian embassies that stopped doing it) you MUST use that letter to show proof of income and you CANNOT use monthly transfers to show it.

That's how the rule is written (or at least interpreted) I had a canadian friend who had over 12 months of monthly transfers into a thai bank account in his name only each month every month for the required minimum amount needed. He was denied the extension even though he had the bank letter, proof the transfers were from abroad, etc. They told him go get the embassy letter and come back. He did and they gave him the extension no question asked

Before comments are closed, after you enter Thailand, contact your embassy, the Canadian Embassy, about getting a letter saying that you make 40K THB a month. Use that letter as proof of income :)

I'm closing comments to prevent this post from going out of control.

Can Canadians get the affidavit of income letters from their Embassy ??

A quick remember about the group rules:

We keep everything in the group. NO asking for PMs. NO exceptions.

You should be able to do it; what's your nationality?
