TLDR : Answer Summary
The 400,000 baht requirement for a Non-O visa extension does not need to be transferred from your home country; funds can come from a domestic account, such as your wife's, as long as they are in your account for at least two months prior to applying for the yearly extension.

a Hijacked post, set up as new post and this got hijacked again.

Please make your own post, almost the same situation with another visa, at a different location and with different ways to get the visa will give different answers to almost the same situation, Avoid confusion and get good and to the point answers, by making your own topic.

, yep, go for the 60 day visit thai family and then if you still can't bounce out and back apply for the year extension.

AND

For the year extension there is NO requirement that the 400K baht comes from abroad (it can come from a domestic transfer) only that it is in your account for 2 months before you apply for the yearly extension

How about we sort out whether you're talking about getting the initial 90 day Non-O VISA based on marriage or if you're talking about applying for a yearly extension of stay based on marriage.

What type of entry stamp are you here on now?

I'm on a ME non-o visa for married to Thai, my 90day period ended on 14th of June and I'm on amnesty now. The plan is to extend 60days for visit family and after that if border still closed then apply for the 1y with 400k required.

And we have been using my wife's account when I transfer money here. So if I make the bank account in Thailand does the funds have to come from my Swedish account or we can transfer the 400k from my dear wife ?
