@Dana ******

great answer as in my case low bank fees and I make infrequent transfers so my bank is the better deal. Also my bank reimburses all ATM charges.

@Shayan *******

good luck

the proces/paperwork is a pain and puts a strain on those going for the interview and many just do not take a denial well as they take it a personal insult. I highly recommend you do your best the first time and I spent many hours on my wifes application and at the interview all they wanted, out of a huge stack of paperwork, was my wives employer letter on her job. They were then, it seems, convinced she would return to Thailand. Point the wife had in her possession everything I could think of they might ask for.

you said my links do not show true categoryies, I agree, yet Gabriel Pierce was able to claim they supported his opinion. I see your opinion is also just that a opinion.

My opinion, I agree the US does not want prostitution or overstayers so if you clearly show they are not criminals, prostitutes or likely to overstay, that's why I saud the documention was so important in my first post. they get Visa the first time. I had two Thai Wifes, over 50 years of coming to Thailand. and no ,problems getting either visas nor have most of my friends but if you want to believe the US rejects 97 percent go for it.

@Gabriel *******

What percentage is most? No source I see to support your statement of "most".

@Gabriel *******

and your source is?

@John *******

my wife took her interview in English as she requested.

@Jack ***************

yes my wife was approved.

@Robert **********

yes I forgot to mention when she applied we had been married 4 years, large age difference, and I showed I had been here at that time 12 years. You would lose your bet on 97 percent .

@Robert **********

my wife interview was less then 3 minutes and the question was where we would travel to. I did my planning as she was joint on my Thai and US Bank Accounts for a couple years had a job with documentation, land titles several entry and exits stamos, and so on. Clearly she intended to return so visa granted,
