ORIGINAL POSTER

E- Visa 'system'... I see that a one year multi entry visa based on marriage or being retired and over 50 is no longer available. Also once you register in this 'system' the details are locked... so if you want to change the reason for wanting a visa..e.g. from retirement to having a Thai spouse... you can't! 

Have the one year multi entry visas been shelved now?

All that's available for retirement or Thai spouse is a single entry 90 visa...?

Everyone wanting longer term visas is being pushed into OA and OX applications..

Another move to discourage long term visitors I wonder..?

TLDR : Answer Summary

The post discusses the current status of one-year multi-entry visas in Thailand for retirees and those married to Thai citizens, noting that these visas appear to no longer be available. The author expresses frustration over the inability to change visa purposes once registered in the e-visa system and points out that the only options now seem to be single-entry 90-day visas or moving towards OA and OX visa applications, suggesting a possible trend to discourage long-term visitors.
