Jim ********

I opened a thai bank account with a 1000 baht cash deposit. You dont need a lot. Then you can do Internet banking to do any large deposits therefore not needing to carry large amounts of cash.

How can UK applicants handle a large police background check for a non-OA retirement visa application?

Jim ********

Can you not upload multiple files? I'm pretty sure the visa application (albeit not a retirement visa) allowed multiple files to be uploaded. If that is the case then name them xxx1.pdf, xxxx2.pdf etc.

Other than that there is software out there to merge separate scans into 1 document - Google search will show you.
