I’ve transferred my 400k and this will be seasoned fully on September 15th.

My stamp expired on the 28th of May and I’m on amnesty , my 1 year NON imm O multi entry visa based on marriage expires on 18th Aug.

My Plan now is to wait until 15th September when my 400k is fully seasoned and apply for a 1 year extension of stay based on marriage.

Now I’m hearing I can’t do this as I’ve been on amnesty you can’t transfer to 1 year marriage from amnesty.

Is this correct or does my current plan seem correct ???

Okay, IF your original entry stamp was from the correct visa type (in your case a Non-O visa) and you went directly to amnesty from that 90 day entry stamp, you CAN indeed apply for a year extension straight off amnesty as long as you meet the requirements.

I don't know who you're "hearing" you can't do it from but they're incorrect.

Why not go and get a 60day extension based on family first which would keep you safe and legal until your funds have seasoned?

Not true in Korat. I just got a 1 year extension from amnesty. Take Robert’s advise and contact your local im ofc.

The amnesty is until 31 july, after that it is still not officially confirmed, I would say wait for the official announcement and contact after that your local immigration office.
