When applying for a marriage visa extension how is the financial requirement calculated when you are combining income with savings to reach the amount needed, do you need to prove it monthly or yearly?
Answer summary
When applying for a marriage visa extension in Thailand, you cannot combine income and savings to meet the financial requirement. You must either have a minimum of 400,000 baht in a Thai bank account for 2 months leading up to your application or demonstrate an income of at least 40,000 baht per month for the previous 12 months. If you are employed in Thailand with a salary of at least 40,000 baht per month, this can fulfill the requirement. If you are receiving income from abroad, it must be transferred monthly to a Thai bank account in your name.

There is no combination method allowed for extensions based on marriage (or raising children) you either bank 400K baht a month for 2 months before you apply for the year extension OR you have 40K baht in income every month for the previous 12 months before you apply for the year extension.
If you legally work here with a work permit on a salary of at least 40K baht a month you can use that. IF your consulate here doesn't issue the affidavit of income from abroad notary letter you need to transfer in to a thai bank account in your name only a minimum of 40K baht a month each month every month for the previous 12 months.
