TLDR : Answer Summary
The inquiry concerns renewing a Non O marriage visa in Thailand with funds in the bank for less than the required two months (only 50 days). Responses indicate that if the funds have not been in the bank for the full two months, there could be issues during the renewal process. Several commenters suggest applying for a 60-day family visit extension to allow time for the funds to meet the seasoning requirement. It's crucial to apply for the extension before the current visa expires, and advice points out that the handling can vary by immigration officer.

this happens quite a lot. If the money is not seasoned the requisite TWO months (not 60 days but two calendar months) you can apply for a 60 day visit family extension (which requires no proof of funds) and that will give you the time until the money for the yearly extension based on marriage is seasoned enough

I do not know what the last day of your Admitted to Stay is, you can apply for Extension till this last day. If it does not match the 2 months, you can apply for a 2 months Extension of Stay without financial proof to visit your wife. Than the money is long enough in the bank to apply for a 1 year Extension of Stay again.

Yes, if you have the time wait till the 2 months are completed. If that is 20 days before just wait another 3 or 4 days to make sure. Plenty of time left if you forget one of the other needed copies.

I don't know. You do not renew your Visa. You apply for an Extension of Stay of your Admitted to Stay period. If 20 days before the Admitted to Stay period ends your money is 2 months in the bank it should be no problem. If it is not 2 months just apply to visit your wife get 60 days and apply again for the 1 year max 30 days before last date of Extension.

The money must be in a Thai bank and in the foreigners sole name. Immigration are strict on timescales for the money. No leeway.

He want to apply for an Extension of Stay at a local Immigration office, not for a new Visa at an Embassy or Consulate. You can apply for Extension of Stay at some offices 45 days, others 30 days before the last day of Admitted to Stay stamp in your passport.
