I am trying to fulfill the new financial requirements for my 1 year extension on my Non-O Visa based on marriage. I have a question regarding the bank account. I am having a very hard time finding a bank that will open a bank account for me as I do not have a work permit and do not work in Thailand. Only one bank would open an account for me but only if it were a joint account with both my name and my wife's name on it. Would that be acceptable or not? Any information about this would be appreciated. Cheers.

What about investment VISA? does it work? do they ask you for a huge amount to be invested? Cheers
