Hello group. Retirement visa question. I currently am living in Chiang Mai, been here about a month and have a non-immigrant 0- 90 day visa. I have my TM 30 as well as residency certification which was required for me to open up my bank account with Bangkok Bank. My question is whether or not the US Consular Office here in Chiang Mai is able to handle all other certifications ,such as income verification, before going to Thai Immigration office for receiving my retirement visa?

TIA!

Bill
