What are my options if my 400k THB isn't seasoned in time for my "O" extension based on marriage and how does this affect my PR application?

AND just like that we're done. Good luck to the O/P

IF you don't get UNBROKEN yearly extensions of stay for 3 years you just re-set the clock as far as when you can apply for PR

BUT

I think you'd have to go talk to the people at Counter D in the PR section of Chaengwattana to find out if a covid extension (which is an real extension just based on 'officer discretion'), would reset the clock

IF you need time getting the money seasoned the correct amount before you apply for the year, apply for the 60 day visit thai family extension (at least you're getting an extension for the same reason) and that shouldn't upset the apple cart at all

In relation to the PR question, an ex neighbour of mine went down this route, and application was rejected because of a 60-day break in the three year qualifying period. As Benjamin has pointed out the criteria (unless it's changed in the last 18 months) required three consecutive annual extensions, so if you take a 60-day extension, the clock on PR will be reset.

Just a quick question. Don't you need a work permit and pay tax for years to apply for PR? Not hijacking your post. Just genuinely wondering

If the 400K THB does not meet the seasoning requirements, you have four options:

1. Get a 60 day extension of stay based on unable to travel due to COVID-19 (last day is May 28)

2. Get a 60 day extension of stay based on visiting Thai family (only allowed once per visa or entry stamp, depending on the immigration office)

3. Get another extension of stay you may qualify for. If you have half-Thai children, you must have 400K THB in a Thai bank account, but *NO* seasoning requirements.

4. Go on overstay (bad bad option).
