TLDR : Answer Summary

The USA Embassy in Thailand does not currently provide an affidavit of income for Non-O visa applications, as they stopped offering this service on December 31, 2018. To qualify for a Non-O visa, applicants typically need to show a minimum amount of money in a Thai bank account, specifically 800,000 baht in their name, rather than relying on monthly income transferred internationally.

These are the steps you will need to take to get the Non O Visa as a retiree and the One year extension of stay as retired..

No they do not. You’ll need to have 800k Thai baht in an account here for a non o retirement visa.

The ACS division of the US Embassy here hasn't offered affidavit of income from abroad notary service since Dec 31, 2018 🙁

Even if you transferred the required minimum of 65K baht a month into a thai bank account in your name only you will not be able to use 'monthly income method' via international transfers to a thai bank account for either the initial 90 day Non-O visa OR the year extension at the immigration office here.

You can only do those by using banked money method (800K baht in a thai bank account in your name only)
