I am getting ready to apply for my first one year extension based on marriage to my Thai wife next month 

I have got all my paperwork filled out and all of the required documentation 

The money has been in the bank for 5 months 

My question is the bank account is in my name first and my wife’s name second 

Is it going to be a problem that the account is a joint account ?

Answer summary

The user is preparing to apply for a one-year visa extension based on marriage to a Thai citizen and has concerns regarding the acceptability of a joint bank account for financial verification. Comments suggest that having a joint account should not be an issue, but there are recommendations to ensure sufficient funds, as the bank amount may be considered divided between both account holders.

Not a problem, but you need more money in the bank. In Thailand a joint account is seen as 50% of the money is yours and 50% the misses.
