Can I apply for a Non-O retirement visa using a monthly income of 65k THB instead of the 800k deposit?

I was told no I needed the 800k in Jomtien

I'm curious, let's say if they deny the monthly method for the first extension, would it be possible to use the monthly deposits from the previous year to qualify, without also depositing in the current year? Or do the monthly deposits need to continue up to the date of the next/upcoming extension?

The ONLY time I've seen people be able to use monthly income by international transfer method for their initial 90 day Non-O visa and then the first yearly extension from that visa were people who'd previously been on OA visa/extensions using monthly income and who'd bounced out to get OFF the OA extension, came back in free stamp, then immediately applied for the in country 90 day Non-O at their immigration office for 2000baht using the previous 12 months of incoming 65k baht transfers as proof of funds

Now I'm not saying it will work at your immigration office, they could very well require you to bank the 800k baht, all I am saying is going from OA extensions to a free stamp, then the Non-O in country seems to be a viable way to use monthly income by transfer for both the initial Non-O and then the subsequent yearly extension.

You would have to check with your immigration office well before you think you're going to attempt it, because they are the gate-keeperz for you, it's their call and there's not much you can do (other than bank the money) if they say no you can't do it the way I outlined.

I am only saying I have seen that scenario work out in person with people who came off OA extensions and went the in country Non-O visa/extension route at their immigration office
