ok thanks for that i got a non immagrant o visa today valid for a year biased on a marriage to a Thai lady so before 90 days are up i can try ad change it to a marriage visa and not leave every 90 days providing I have 400k in the Thai bank is that what u mean anyway least i have till 2017 to figure it out

many thanks for all your help though

Yes, but it's not a marriage visa or a visa at all. It's an extension of stay.

Whenever you enter using the visa you'll be granted a 90 day stay. Within the last 30 days of any 90 day stay you can apply to extend that stay by 1 year, on the basis of marriage, as long as you can meet the financial/other requirements.

ok got it will do that many thanks

and thanks again so much
