So, it's pointless to ask questions of immigration? Give me a break.You should be aware that interpretation of numerous "rules & regs" can be like the shifting sands of the Sarah. I have a the money in the bank option available, if I need it. End of story and end of debate.

This is a bit concerning & this is not the first case I have herd about this. Some IO's in other offices have got similar ideas IE disallowing the monthly income option, if the applicant cannot obtain an affidavit of income.

I hope the OP will report back as to the outcome.

This is an issue with many money transfers to TH, not only with TransferWise. I only use wire transfer from my USA bank to TH and it always shows as "International Transfer". However many cannot use such a method for various reasons.

Supposedly, monthly variation in deposited amounts IS allowed for a visa based on marriage to a Thai, as long as the totals per year average 40K bht per month.
Dan ******
Yes. That's what I think. IE a print-out from my US bank or yearly S/S award letter amount. No problem. It was clear from the conversation that Immigr. preferred the 400 K bht lump sum method in the bank. Much less paper work.
Dan ******
Yes. The American (foreign) source docs are a bit of a new twist.

Why would you want an "O-A" visa, which requires insurance, when you already have an "O" visa, which does not. If you plan on staying here long-term, the insurance clock will be ticking.
