A friend of mine was in the same position reason to return is always an issue. But he tried once and failed due to not enough evidence of a relationship i drafted him a letter and he inserted pictures and added the lease on his property joint names etc. Although he sponsored the application i got a letter of invite from his mother explaining they would be staying with her.He also had just reserved a condo at the city garden complex which he inserted with the application.If you insert plenty of information and prove you have plenty of funds i cant see you having any problems.

Good luck.

As you are aware, your girlfriend will have to demonstrate an intention to leave the UK at the end of her stay. You mention getting an employment letter even though she no longer works: I would not do this. If the embassy finds out about it, then it could mean that any visa application she makes for 10 years could be refused without full consideration.

Essentially, your intention to go back to Thailand is going to provide your girlfriend's reason to return, so you should supply the evidence of your cohabitation that you mention and show that you have sufficient money in the bank to pay for the trip. If you work in Thailand, show the embassy your work permit and evidence of your job. Also provide evidence of her business and any associated accounts and explain who will be running it in your girlfriend's absence. You will additionally require a letter from whoever will be accommodating you in the UK and evidence that they actiually live at the address; e.g. a council tax bill, mortgage statement, and/or a utility bill.
