First year is 800k then keep it there for 3 months and never let it drop below 400k at the same time deposit 65k a month for 12 consecutive months before the day you apply for second yearly extension. If you go under the 400k it’s start all over again even by 1 transaction on the same day. If your 65k is delayed by a few days and it runs over into the next month then same scenario.

When/If the DTV is approved the terms and conditions will be harsh

You’ll own the business, well 49% of it.

Remember if you want the yearly extension based on marriage or retirement you MUST have your money in your account 2 months before the date of application

As you now state you were married overseas then you will need that marriage certificate certifying. Not sure if you have to do that overseas or if you can do it in Thailand.
