What I love is just how many DTV holders will waste 5 prime working years or more ,in Thailand , making next to nothing then later in life regret it because everyone else landed a decent career back home and contributed to a pension or better yet recieved a company pension and they will end up broke because they wasted their prime years .
The streets of Thailand are going to have lots of begging foreigners in it's future and no way to get home
it's very rare for for thai's to get approval .. most people who have partners will tell you that and have posted a lot about their troubles
You lucked out. Just because you had parents sign something means nothing.... I'm a home owner with high income and she has money and a decent career and twice she was denied .
She has a 19 yr old son , a house and there was absolutely no reason to deny her and all we recieved was a generic letter which didn't even apply to our situation
my wife was turned down twice using different immigration agents even though she was employed , has more than enough money in the bank and I own my house
I'm married to a Thai , and it's been great πDon't listen to.all the negative because most of these guys went after the bargirls
My wife choose to be with a westerner because of abuse by Thai men in her past and found western men , for the most part , treated and respected her much better
As far as our relationship ,when she landed in Canada she started searching for employment and landed an amazing career even before she received a SIN number ( you need one to work here ) .
She hated the idea that I was supporting her so she asked me to drive her to the interview and she was hired the same day and started working , she's making more than I am, which was totally unexpected and you can see how happy she is . She doesn't ask me for money at all , she's self sufficient
We were actually going to move back to Thailand this winter but she wants to further her new career and has applied to go back to school and get a higher certification so she made even more money π°
This may not be the norm for most but so far I have zero complaints and it's good to see how successful she has been and it's only going to get better as her income climbs after finishing her upgrades..she'll be pushing 6 figures
If we ever divorced I could go after her for support π as she will be making alot more than me in the future ... jk
All I'm going to say is Thailand is going to regret issuing this visa 5 years from now ... mark my word. Very shortsighted just to keep the hotel industry happy
We'll watch to see what happens over the next yr or so. In that time our house price will increase and my wife just started her new career and is making an extremely good income for someone that's new to Canada so it's only fair I let my wife enjoy it and bank her money π° so when we do move things may be more settled and we'll be even more comfortable when we land
