This is sort of from another post. But I'm on a marriage visa and was told the only time the verification of funds matters is two months prior to applying or reapplying for your marriage visa. Is this true?
Answer summary
Verification of funds for a marriage visa in Thailand is important only two months prior to applying for or extending the visa. However, some immigration offices may require a three-month seasoning period for the minimum amount of 400,000 THB. To avoid complications, it is advisable to keep the required funds in a separate bank account until the visa extension is approved.

and since the "1-year Extension of Stay based on marriage to a Thai wife" ist handed out with 4 weeks "under consideration", it is advisable to keep the 400.000.- THB until you get issued the full 1-year Extension. Just as a precaution

@Cris *****
the "official" police order mentions two-months seasoning of a minimum of 400.000.- THB on the day you apply for the EXTENSION (not the visa!) of the stay permit by ONE YEAR

*** however SOME Immigrations make up their own rules and demand a THREE-months seasoning, knowing you will need an agent to jump through this hoop and pay tea money
