Hello everyone! I’m looking to apply for a Non-O Marriage Visa. I’m on amnesty at the moment, but I’d like to stay longer. This is my first time applying so there’s a lot of confusion in my head around what kind of documents Immigration will need. Probably my biggest hurdle is the 400k. I tried to open a bank account today, but no bank was willing to do it for different reasons, one of them being I’m on amnesty. My wife and I had a look at the Immigration Bureau’s website and there was nothing there about having the money in a Thai bank account ( I could use international banks) or that it has to be there for 2 months prior. We tried it anyway because that’s what everyone seems to be doing.
If I can’t get the Marriage Visa, will I be able to apply for an extension? Some folks mentioned that they were on a 60-day family extension before amnesty.
I would really appreciate some help! Thank you in advance. 🙂
