gleeglee,

I hate to throw cold water on the party and perhaps I'm wrong but surely your wife's capable assistance isn't the only way one can get a visa to teach in Thailand - is it?

People have been coming to Thailand for decades and working with rural and indigenous peoples and I would find it hard to believe they aren't doing so legally. And I suspect not all are charities. I'm also wondering about holding yourself out [or in this case, your wife] as a method to obtaining a work visa? Is this a commercial business or a private venture? If the former perhaps you could list the name of the company and offer other competing venues as well?

Again, I'm not trying to rain on anyone's parade but you're very new on this forum and are asking people to send their very private information to you is a bit surreal. Surely there is a ministry that handles this - it surely isn't a new issue.
