Just letting you know that Jomtien is now enforcing the 400k in bank while under consideration (marriage ext.)
I got a call from Immigration, 2 weeks in, to update my bankbook and take to immigration today.
I still have to go back again in 2 more weeks for the stamp..

TLDR : Answer Summary
The post discusses the recent enforcement of the 400k baht bank requirement for marriage visa extensions in Jomtien, Thailand. An expat shares their experience with Immigration regarding updating their bankbook and the necessity to return for additional verification.
Different immigration offices, and different extension, have different rules (and sometimes different passport countries too). Are you using the same immigration office as the OP, AND are you getting the same extension?
someone may correct me but I believe other offices require an updated bankbook the day of the under consideration stamp, Jomtien randomly called me 2 weeks before to take in my updated bankbook. In the past they've never asked to see the bankbook after applying for extension..
