Question about 400K…
(First time applying for the non-O one year marriage visa in Thailand)
- I deposited 400K into my husband’s bank account two months ago.
- Yesterday, August 29th he updated the bank book and got the bank statement showing 400K, thinking that all was good for the marriage visa application. Then pullout 10K out, so his bank balance was at 390K. 🤬🤬🤬
- This morning, Aug 30th we submitted all the documents to apply for the Non-O marriage visa. We were told the bank book needs to be updated on the same day as the application date!!😓😨
- In the afternoon I transferred the 10K to his account and updated the bank book again.
The immigration officer recommended him to change the application to the custodian/guardian visa to our two half-Thai kids. (I’m not sure which term is used in English, in Thai is วีซ่าอุปการะบุตร). However I was told there was no guarantee if my husband’s visa will be approved due to the withdrawal of the money. I’m so confused!
- We registered our marriage in Thailand
- Two kids were born in Thailand
- We all live together in Thailand
Has anyone had experience with the same situation? I would appreciate if you could share your experience with me. (I’m kicking my husband’s ass in the meantime.)
In case his non-O guardian visa is not approved, what are other options?
• He got a one year non-o visa based on marriage from Suvannakhet
• He got the “60-day visiting family visa” which will be expired on Sep 2nd.
❓Can he get a non-o visa from Suvannakhet again?
❓Can he submit documents for non-o marriage visa again after the 400K is in his account for two more months ?
