800,000 Baht for Annual Extension - Sole or Joint A/c?

[tomdfc]

For the last few years I (as the retiree) have had a sole ac/ for the purpose of ring-fencing the 800k.  My wife (aka the "dependent")  and I also have a joint a/c which is our working a/c.

I now understand there is no need to maintain the balance at 800k all year but only to ensure it's there for the requisite period before the next annual extension.

There would therefore be advantages in dropping the sole dedicated a/c but would a joint a/c be acceptable to the immigration authorities?

Thanks in anticipation.

Nope. It has to be in the name of the main applicant.

With joint account the amount must be 1.6 Mbaht.

Correct but some offices will not accept them at all.
