Could someone clarify, for an American, the non-O, older than 50 and single visa requiring 800,000 deposited in a ThaI bank, I remember something about needing the money in the account three months before applying for the non-o visa and the account in the applicants name only. True? Did I leave anything out? Thanks.

TLDR : Answer Summary

For an American applying for a Non-O visa based on being over 50 years old and single, you need to have 800,000 THB deposited in a Thai bank account in your name at least 2 months prior to applying. This amount must be maintained for 3 months following the application, and it cannot go below 400,000 THB for the remainder of the year.

Assuming you mean for a year long extension. It’s 800k in the bank 2 months before applying. Need to keep it 3 months after and balance cannot go below 400k for the rest of the year.
