@Tod ********

still need the letter from embassy confirming the source of your income. Unless you have a WP and can show Thai income tax document.

@Tod ********

you are a dreamer. Reality is different. Anyway, give your good advises to others they will just waste their time at IO and arguing with the officials.

@Tod ********

go to any immigration office, they will tell you.

@Tod ********

and still you need to show 400k as I mentioned before, even for the initial one. Been there, done it.

@Tod ********

this visa can only be applied outside of Thailand.

@Tod ********

cannot. Credit of 40k per month alone is not enough. They need to have a confirmation from embassy on where the money comes from. And for this way, 3 months 40k is not enough. You need 12 month. 3 month is for 400k deposit in Thai Bank.

I assume you are talking about a spouse visa. You need letter from your embassy confirming the source of funds. Or you can deposit THB 400k in a thai bank account but you need to show this for the past 3 months plus a letter from the bank. And that is not all. It requires a lot more documents such as house book, rental contracts, pictures with you and wife/kid inside and outside the house and maybe more.... if you are over 50, you can apply non OA which requires 800k.

@Daniel *******

and if I were in your country, I can stay as long as I want?

@Daniel *******

people should be where their centre of life is and not go on vacation.

@Daniel *******

up to Thai government not you and me.
