ORIGINAL POSTER

On return to UK in May, I am now thinking the Non Imm O-A Visa is better for me than the Non Imm O based on being married to a Thai. Funds are in bank UK account able to cover either. I may be in UK for 3-4 months so enough time to be able to get either.

Is the Non O-A a better Visa once I return to Thailand...
