Is the income method for retirement visa renewal in Chiang Mai still accepted?

what that also means IS

if you're going to try for the "combo method" from an extension you're on that you used banked money method, you HAVE to bank 400K baht <- because that's the amount of banked money you need in your account the entire year for the banked money extension you're on before you apply for the new extension using the combo method.

so you'd have to transfer in to the country about baht a month to hit the 800K baht total required (33,500 X 12= 402k plus the 400k banked = 802K) for the combo method.

In fact SOME offices say you can't DO the combo method without banking a minimum of 400K baht; because that's the example the police order uses spelling out the seasoning requirements for the banked money portion of the combo method, but actually there is no minimum amount you have to bank for the combo method ONLY that it follows the seasoning requirements (2 months before, 3 months after and then can't go below 50% the rest of the year)

Sheesh, that read more complicated than it is, hope it was understandable 🙁
