I do have a question about the 2/3 month seasoning before and the 3 month after on 800000 baht for a retirement extension. Is the date this measured on the date you apply/receive the extension or is it the start/end date of the extension?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The 2-month seasoning period refers to having 800,000 Thai baht in your bank account for two full months prior to the date of your application for a retirement extension. After receiving your one-year extension stamp, you must maintain this balance for an additional three months. However, the counting of these months can vary by immigration office, with some requiring the three-month period to start either from the date of extension approval or from the start date of the extension.

You need to have funds of 800k baht in your Thai bank account for full 2 calendar months as of application day for a new one-year extension. Some offices ask for 3 months instead of 2 months.
“3 months after the extension granted” is counted from the day you get your new extension stamp at many offices. But there are a few offices that count “3 months after” from the day your new extension starts.
You need to check the province specific detailed policy with your local immigration policy.

It's to show PROOF of your having the 800,000 Thai baht on deposit in your Thai bank for the 2 full months before the current ending date of your one year extension of stay,
...and kept at the 800,000 Thai baht balance for 3 months after you receive the one year extension of stay STAMP in your passport.
Otherwise, the bank account balance must be at least 400,000 Thai baht for all other months.
