@Colin ********

you can make SWIFT transfers via Wise but they are more expensive

Even Wise recommend you use SWIFT if it's important to show your transfers are international.

Did you explain to the immigration officer your plan to leave Thailand and what dates you would be out of the country when you applied for the extension so they could time any home visit for when you are there? If not you should go back to the relevant section and explain to them. Don't rely on the fact a different section gave you a re-entry permit

Yes this will be a problem. But if the move is essential for some reason go to the immigration office and explain, taking a new map if you had to supply one and see what they say. Just a TM30 will not suffice

It depends on where you apply. Some places want 3 months of statements but as long as the final balance is 500k baht its ok, others want to see 500k baht for the full 3 months

SerenePineapple9021 might work, might not work. If you're happy to throw away another application fee go ahead, but it might be worth trying to work out why you were refused first

One can't apply for the DTV spouse option until the primary DTV applicant has received their visa as it needs to be quoted in the spouse application

Why were you rejected in Vietnam? And what makes you think you will succeed elsewhere?

@Yo***

that's not true. If you spend 90 days in the UK every year you will remain a UK tax resident. You can be tax resident in more than one country at the same time

good luck with that, sounds like you understand my point exactly
