I can’t be sure about the name of the Thailand account. Most likely it’s the husband because he was told that he could get a Retirement Visa but his wife would have to make an independent application! This is weird.

The 800,000 is in a Thailand account under the name of the Husband. Immigration quizzed about the USA account ownership which was the source of the 800,000. To me this is ridiculous, but that’s the situation.

in that case Tod, they could simply move to Laos for example and apply for a Retirement Visa for the husband and declare his wife as a dependent. Is it that simple?

I thought only one needs to hold the Retirement Visa and the Spouse becomes attached as a dependent. Then there was the strange Immigration comment about which one provided the 800,000

They we’re refused an Retirement Visa with the wife as a dependent at Chiang Mai Immigration in the last couple of days. They held Non O Retirement previously and for reasons I’m not clear about came back to Thailand with ED Visa’s
