ORIGINAL POSTER
Robert or Tod, I believe I have given the correct answer to this poster, but please clarify. The discussion on another page was around best way to transfer funds here monthly to meet the 65,000 minimum. one poster indicated this:

"I got to ATM get my money and deposit in bkk bank. Showed paper work to immigration and they where OK with that."

That, of course contradicts do many discussions you both have made here, but maybe I have misunderstood. Is it possible to withdraw funds from my US bank at an atm here, then deposit them to my Thai bkk bank acct, and have CM immigration accept them in my extension renewal of my retirement visa??

thanks for any clarification

TLDR : Answer Summary
The poster is seeking clarification on whether withdrawing funds from a US bank using an ATM in Thailand and then depositing them into a Bangkok Bank account is acceptable to meet the 65,000 THB monthly income requirement for the extension of a retirement visa. They note conflicting information from various discussions and seek guidance to confirm if this method of fund transfer would be accepted by Chiang Mai immigration.
