Hi folks new member to the group , my wife and I are looking to stay in Thailand for at least a year in 2023 once she hits 50 ,I’m 53 , looking at the OA one year multiple entry visa on the uk embassy site it states I can apply for the retirement visa and my wife would only be issued an O visa but strange they don’t mirror the hubby,s , I don’t plan to send her home after 90days 😂 I take it she would have to apply for her own OA visa , as far as funds go showing the same 800k In a uk bank would we technically have to show double or would they accept the 800k in a joint account , would be easier if they just did the same as the 5 year and stamped the wife’s the same as the hubby,s ,there is of course the elite visas which is a doddle to get and a lot less hassle but £18500 for a couple one is ridiculously expensive
