Hi. Can anyone recommend how best to present the minimum 65k monthly income option (with all the required bank records I have showing a regular deposit from overseas each month above the 65k) to the immigration dept, rather than having to rely on the 800k option. Is there an easy solution for getting them to understand what I am trying to achieve without them suggesting that I need some kind of letter from the UK embassy, which isn’t going to happen. Thanks.

If you are in Bangkok, you are going to Chaengwattana. Chumchuri wouldn't handle Non-O based on retirement visa/extension.

Its a commonly used option. Maybe you go to your local immigration and ask for their procedure to show the monthly transfer. Individual immigration offices tend to have different procedures. Which immigration office are you planning to go to? Maybe some one can tell his/her experiance there.

What you can do is going to your bank and asking them for two documents:

1. the transaction record which shows you have more than 65K transfers for each month for 12 months

2. a bank letter showing you have that required account

That is the only way you can show your required funds.

this. worked for me for years now with no question from immigration, Also update your bank book monthly so if there is a query from immigration about the bank letters you can show the transactions from the letter in your bank book too.
