Just wanted to share my story: My wife and I both arrived on Feb 2nd here in Cambodia. Her application was submitted on Feb 3rd. It was submitted under ' Soft Power.' She is the primary and I'm being sponsored by her. Her approval was on Feb. 18th at which time my application was submitted.

The Primary has to be approved before the spouses can be submitted. I just received my approval today March 5th. I just wanted you to know if you are getting approved as a couple give yourself at least a month if it is over here in Cambodia. I talked to a Visa agent here and they said Cambodia is swamped with so many applications and they are taking longer to process. Good luck to everyone.

Does anyone know if both my husband and I need to individually apply for permanent residency? Or if we can apply together? IE we both need to be working for 3 years, or we both need our own individual 10M investment?

Hey guys!

Looking for some Quick advice. Me and My girlfriend Will be going to Kuala Lumpur to get a Visa for Thailand and was wondering what the possibilities are to get a METV?

I read somewhere that if you travel as a couple the financial requirements can be met as a couple. For example my GF doesnt have the required £5000 but if I would have an account where I can show proof of funds for £10000. Is this sufficient for us both to meet the financial requirements?

Also FYI we have already got a SETV which we are using right now and Will be leaving Thailand to get (hopefully) a METV. Will our previous stay with the SETV complicate things further do you think?

Thanks for your help.
