Apologies if I missed something.......you married in the UK so this is presumably not her first UK visa application.. Did she previously apply for a fiancee visa? I have also always bought flights before applying - but have never submitted the details with the application as an Entry Clearance Officer (ECO) will simply disregard them as pointed out by @oldgit If your wife has sufficient funds to cover all costs of a 2 week holiday you can say that you are staying in various hotels and family members. If you are staying with parents you may be wise to get a letter of invitation. Previous applicants have supplied details of the house to show there is adequate accommodation. @sandyf mentioned you writing a letter outlining details of the relationship and reasons or your visit etc. and that is good advice. However, let's be clear - this is your wife's application and (apart from being her husband) you have nothing t do with it; you don't even need to be 'sponsor' if she is evidencing sufficient funds in the bank. Without having all the information, it seems that you making this brief visit for family reasons ie it is probably not a holiday at this short notice and only 2week duration. There are 3 key areas than ECO needs to satisfy themselves on:- Genuineness of Relationship and genuine reason to visit. Financial adequacy.... She/you must evidence adequate money for the duration of stay. Unfortunately, unlike Schengen visas, UKVI do not give any guidance on this (Spain suggests a minimum of EUR 100/120 per day.). Reasons to Return to Thailand. The big one. The risk of flight for (younger) Thais is deemed to high by many countries - Australia are particularly hard on this but you seem to have enough in your story (and a marriage certificate) to counter this. Copies of chanotes, or any other document must be translated into English and certified. Your financial story is interesting and probably incomplete. You have no income but a bit of capital; you have no pension which suggests that you are younger and possibly returning at some point to work. If you are going to make reference to your financial situation in your introduction letter make sure it stands up to scrutiny -otherwise leave it out (and any other reference to you) and just provide the letter, relying on your wife's financial evidence. In simplistic terms you re a married couple who are building a house in Thailand (which will become your permanent home) and you are making a brief UK visit to see family. After the 2 weeks you will return to Thailand to continue building your house. You can evidence enough money to cover the visit and you have the backup of parental accommodation.

Not sounding off....and thanks for confirming that you were defending the miscreants.

Her arrogance only added to what we are really talking about - the disrespectful act of not removing shoes. That is what the story is about; the words, as evidenced by the video, simply emphasise her arrogance.

You do if a sign says "Please remove shoes..." You either remove them or you don't go in. I wouldn't let in the shirtless boyfriend either. Sounds like you are defending this POS

Pointless analogy, you don't take shoes off in Nana Plaza

Arrogant and potentially a liar. Highly unlikely that the shop owner would make such an exception, but I wasn't there so anything is possible,.....still unlikely and I would have pointed out the owners approval rather than set off on a rant.

Not necessarily so, if he referenced any Thai assets in his name (Likely only a Thai bank account as other assets in the name of Mrs Chelsea Fan). Personally, I prefer separate UK and Thai Wills but with negligible assets in Thailand that would be pointless. -Only required as a backup to protect money in a Thai bank if other post-death withdrawal plans are not in place.

Oh, I don't know, a few of those lads look they would make decent bouncers!

So you think this is new? Good luck to Lisa she is making a pile and it beats working in Pattaya.

Faze

......and the rest.

Many of those who did likewise have shifted allegiance towards Reform.

Fools

I abstained at the last General Election as the Conservatives were not worthy of my vote and I couldn't bring myself to support Starmer.

Slappers

You are Thai?

Because you wasted my time by having to read your pointless post.

I agree, but if they don't keep reporting it, it will be a slow news day - and we will just get more of 'What Donald did next'.
