I didn't know weather to put this in the marriage,Law or this forum but my question is ultimately about

a visa so here goes.

I am getting married and filling out an affidavit.There is a sentence which says.

My occupation is...........and I have an income of..........per month.as proof of which I attach a bank statement.(for Thai authorities only).

To cut a long story short I have about 20,000bht a month coming from an Irish bank account into a Thai bank account.This can be shown.Where the money comes from before it goes into my Irish account can't be shown and I haven't worked legally for years.

So how should i fill in the blanks in this sentence and what bank account should I show.I want to be particularity careful because I want to apply for a MULTI ENTRY NON EMIGRANT O visa in Savanakhet or Hull where they don't ask for financial statements for these visas on grounds of marriage.

If anybody has an answer to how I fill out the sentence without shooting myself in the foot I would be most grateful.

For O visa with extension based on marriage you only need 400k baht in a Thai bank account - does this address your issue?

Just fill in the thruth. There is no mimimum income requirement to get married.

Thanks Mario,

• But is there any fear that I will ever have to show this paper in the consulates at Hull when applying for a visa.

No, you only show this paper to the amphur when you get married. They keep it.

Immigration in Thailand might want a copy of the affirmation letter from your embassy, if you want to apply for an extension of stay. But at this moment that is not an option, as you don't qualify with an income of only 20,000.

You are asking about The Affirmation to Marry available from your Embassy.

As Mario says it makes no difference what you put. So just be truthful.

It is just a document to enable you to Marry in Thailand.

Mario,

Thanks mate,

I just wanted to be sure to be sure,

Your on the ball
