I had thought it is primarily a dodge on the "seasoning" requirement. Yes, against the rules, but seems a bit tame as crimes go. Why do you find it a particular offense? Simple.

Now the wife never has any hoops to jump through or people to pay off, that's what a civilsed country does for you.

You can't defend them, maybe you are one of them. :-) So, one borrows a sum of money from a wealthy friend or relative and hold it in a bank account for 3 months and then return it once it's achieved its purpose. Where's the harm in that? So long as one is legally providing for ones self and for ones family, if appropriate, I see nothing wrong with this practise. And to which false or forged documents are you referring? Edited February 11, 2018 by Moonlover Additional paragraph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 3 month lock-down period make it impractical just to "borrow" the 800K, unless of course they have an insider in the bank also. But, don't they request you to do a little 20 baht transaction the day u apply for the visa? My guess it involves forgery, and some people here can't see the crime. I guess it is a form of denial, maybe motivated by the TV rul that says one shouldn't promote illegal activity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could very well be and that is a little worrying, because eventually there will be some knee-jerk reaction adding another layer of rules and regulation that will apply for us law abiding citizens. Some FB visa service companies claim the 800K is not required and the visa is done in 3 days. Very dodgy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
