Please tell me if I'm on the right track? I have the non o from US. Secured a condo with tm 30 and lease agreement in bangkok. Arrived October 18. My bank account was opened November 8th with required amount. Is there anything I missed? Just seems strange waiting the 60 days.

Answer summary

The user inquired about their progress with a NON-O visa extension in Thailand after arriving on October 18, having opened a bank account on November 8 and secured a condo. Community responses clarified that the user must keep the required funds in their bank account for a full two months before applying for an extension, meaning they will need to wait until January 8. Others advised visiting immigration early to prepare the necessary paperwork.

For peace of mind, I went to immigration early collected the paperwork for the extension and completed it, giving me time to iron out any issues.

You're not waiting 60 days. You're waiting 2 months. You cannot apply for the extension until your money has been in the bank for 2 full months. That means if your funds were deposited on November 8th, you cannot apply until January 8th.

If you have extra time, then go to immigration and ask them for their handout of requirements for the 1-year extension. That will allow you to make sure you have everything in order when the time comes.
