How Does Immigration Verify Your Retirement Visa Funds After Approval?

and I think by this point

@Ch***

now has an understanding of just how the immigration offices check for proof of funds :) :)

Chris...BEWARE...

Its YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to meet the financial requirements all year long.

Read the Police Order..

Have 800,000 Thai baht in bank two months before and three months after you obtain your one year extension...

DO NOT ALLOW THE BALANCE TO FALL BELOW 400,000 Thai baht at ANY time.

Your RENEWAL APPROVAL is SUBJECT to you MEETING the REQUIREMENTS. And will be seen by Thai Immigration when you seek an added one year extension of stay.

So my question to you is When you got your extension did you get a paper with a date on it telling you to update your bank book and show back up in 3 months? Like this?

IF you use banked money to meet the proof of funds for an extension based on being over 50 (retirement) you need it in the account for 2 months BEFORE you apply for the extension

NOW as far as how does the immigration office know you kept the 800K baht in the account for 3 months AFTER you got your extension?

Some offices give you a paper with a date on it dated 3 months out and say update your bank book and come back on this date.

Some don't and instead tell you that they will look at the bank book next year when you apply to see if you met the requirements as far as how long the money was in the account.

It's totally up to the immigration office you use for your extension.

How can you get a retirement visa before you apply for it?
