ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi, is it possible to get a marriage visa based on income (40k+ every month for the last 12 months from Savannakhet with or without tax shown)? I ask because Korat immigration have not given me a clear answer, if I may apply or not at the end of February from this previously offered option. I showed them all the correct documents to make the requirements, but they made me wait for two hours without an answer due to the new tax laws on overseas income. They could not tell me, if I had to show tax paid or if they could even issue the visa, if I had my taxes to show after talking to the immigration ‘boss’ in Korat and Kohn Kaen.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The original poster inquired about obtaining a marriage visa in Thailand based on a monthly income of over 40,000 baht, specifically from Savannakhet, amidst confusion regarding tax documentation requirements. Comments clarified that the in-country 90-day Non-O visa cannot be granted solely on monthly income transfers. Alternatives include proving 400,000 baht in a Thai bank account or obtaining a visa directly from the Thai consulate without proof of funds.

It is not possible to get an in country 90 day Non-O visa based on marriage using monthly transfers of 40k baht a month for the previous 12 months

AND

It is not possible to get either a 90 day single-entry 90 day or a year long multi-entry Non-O visa based on marriage from the thai consulate in Savannakhet using monthly income by transfer no matter how many months you have.

You can get a 90 day in country Non-O based on marriage by banking 400k baht in a thai bank account (most immigration offices do not require those funds be seasoned for the initial 90 day non-O application).

OR

You can go to the thai consulate in Savannakhet and get the 90 day single entry Non-O visa based on marriage with no proof of funds

OR

You can go to the thai consulate in Savannakhet and get the year-long, multi-entry Non-O visa based on marriage with proof of 400K baht in a thai bank account in your name only for 2 months before you apply

To the best of my knowledge those are your options.
