Hi. I'm an American woman in Chiang Mai, needing to convert my Non-Immigrant O for purpose of retirement to actual Retirement visa in October. I just had a few questions for this group?
*I know I need 800K in bank for two months (It'll be 2 months this week). --- Can I print out a bank statement from my app or do I need to go to the bank for proof?
*What do I need to bring with besides these items? 4 passport photos, Blue Pen, TM 30, Lease Agreement?
*Should I fill out an application before going? If so, does anyone haves a link to the proper application?
*Am I missing something? Missing any details on this process?
*My current visa expires on Oct 16th, Is going around 7th or 8th safe?
Thanks in advance!
Made it this far with the help of this group!
TLDR : Answer Summary
An American woman in Chiang Mai seeks advice on converting her Non-Immigrant O visa for retirement into a Retirement visa. She asks if a bank statement can be printed from an app, what documents she needs to bring, whether to fill out an application beforehand, and if applying close to her visa expiration date is safe. Responses emphasize that she is applying for a yearly extension rather than converting the visa, detailing the necessary bank documentation, including a standard bank letter and updated bank book, and that requirements may differ by immigration office.
