Hello everyone. I entered Thailand a year ago on a Tourist visa, then switched to a one year ED visa that is coming up on March 7th. I got married my Thai wife 2 weeks ago, we live in Bangkok. I also deposited more than 400,000 BHT into a Thai bank acccount on January 1st, it arrived in my Thai bank account on the 5th. What are my options to stay in Thailand long term?

Can I get a 60 day extension based on visiting family? When can I apply for this, how far in advance before the end of my current extension does it have to be? What documents do I have to show, and since the marriage certificate is only 2 weeks old will they accept it without any update?

Can I get the 1 year extension based on marriage now? I kinda doubt it since the money arrived on the 5th and March 5th is a Saturday. What day do they use, the day when I sent the money or the day it arrived in my bank account? Also since I have to apply at least 15 days before my current extension expires and the money has to have been in my bank account 2 months before the day of application that doesn’t seem possible.

Or if none of these work maybe I could switch to another ED visa or a volunteer visa?

Hello. Does anyone have experience of applying for a Non-Immigrant O visa in the UK, without being able to show proof of monthly income?

As a business owner, I draw the bulk of my income in the form of dividends, as and when required. This means that I do not meet the criteria of being able to show a monthly income of more than £1,400.

Would a letter from a chartered accountant certifying net worth, suffice? I have emailed the Thai embassy in London however am yet to receive a response.

Any help much appreciated!
