Unless something changed, HCMC does not require financials for Non-O based on Marriage to a Thai; most do not.  Penang, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore are the odd ones in the area that do want to see financials.

 

Also, "originals" of ID and Housebook are not usually required - just signed copies.  Did they ask to see those originals?  

Marriage Cert they usually do want to see the original - or if you don't have that, an original of the other Kor Ror you can get certified versions of from any amphur.

Words from the staff in HCMC  

'All embassy and consulate will soon be the same for Multi O'

My wife was with me and she was asked to write a letter of sponsorship in the consulate.

The visa also has a hand written note saying I am married to Mrs Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx.

Seoul a couple of years ago also did not ask to see financials but I don't know the situation there now, maybe still the same.
