Do both partners need to provide financial statements when applying for a Non-OX visa in Thailand?

Kool *******

Umm, I think you have to have your OX visa before your wife can get her dependent visa under your OX visa, but I might be wrong.

Can I work remotely in Thailand while paying UK taxes without facing double taxation issues?

Kool *******

As long as you pay your correct income taxes in the UK you have no tax liability in Thailand at this point in time, even after 180 days in the year.

Why do I keep facing questioning at immigration with my DTV visa in Thailand?

Kool *******

Immigration stereotypes and profiles, and if you fit any element of their undesirable list you are questioned repeatedly.

How many 60-day visa exceptions with a 30-day extension can you obtain in a 12-month period in Thailand?

Kool *******

It depends if you fit their profiling and stereotyping, in which case it can be just once, as they determined you are trying to stay here long term as a tourist, and they do not like those people at all. If you have dreadlocks and a backpack, then expect a rejection the second time. Regular tourists don't get the 30 day extension.

What are the best practices for applying for the Digital Nomad Visa from the Royal Thai Embassy in Ottawa?

Kool *******

as it stands now you will not meet the requirements for the DTV to work remotely in Thailand. You don't seem to have any documentation whatsoever to prove you have a legitimate business. At the very least do you have a business license?
