Can I Use My Wife's Bank Account for the One-Year Non-Imm O Visa?
Hi, I was on a Non Imm O purposes of marriage 90 day plus 60 day. This expired 18th April so I’m now covered by the amnesty. When I can leave and return I’ll get the same from Hong Kong Consulate but I’d like to switch to a one year at Phuket immigration when back.
Is it true if I put 200k in my wife’s account rather than 400k in my own this will suffice? We also have a 6 month old daughter with my name who is not currently referenced in the visa. Would this make any difference to the deposit if she were?
Thank you in advance.

Summary so far
The user is currently on a Non Imm O visa for marriage and wishes to switch to a one-year extension upon returning to Thailand. They inquire about using 200k in their wife's bank account instead of the required 400k in their own account, and whether having a daughter affects this requirement.

If you are going to apply for a yearly extension of stay based on marriage to a thai national at the immigration office using banked money you need 400K baht in a thai bank account in your name only for 2 months before you apply for the extension.

makes no difference whether you get the extension based on having a half thai child OR based on marriage to a thai. BOTH extensions require 400K baht in a thai bank account in your name only.
IF you are using a joint account to get the extension you would need DOUBLE the amount required in the account (800K baht in a joint account to meet the 400K baht financial requirements for a marriage extension)
