For a Non-O visa based on retirement, funds will have to be shown, but not seasoned.

1. What immigration office?

2. Are you getting an in-country 90 day Non-O visa or a one year extension of stay?

3. IF you are getting an extension of stay, is this for retirement, marriage, or raising half-Thai child (or for another reason)?

In Country Non - O Retirement

I’ve always had O-A before but I’ve been overseas for 2 years because of Covid so I have to start again

Assuming that immigration office issues the Non-O visa inside the country: There is no seasoning requirements to get an in-country Non-O visa, only proof that you have 800K THB in a Thai bank account transferred from overseas.
