I am just wondering about the benefit to obtain this visa vs non Ox 5 years .

The Non OX for almost everyone was a Non-Starter for the sheer requirement of having 3 million baht in a Thai bank.

If you were applying from Sydney prior to them changing over to the evisa system then it was a No-brainer. They were the only consulate that didn’t require funds in Thailand and for $600 was a great option.

Now that they have switched to the evisa system I have no idea if they still offer the upgrade from the OA on application.

it depends on the type of income. SS no but other income you bring in to Thailand you provably do, although you will get a credit for tax paid in the US on the money you bring in

depends on the type of pension. You need to look at the dual tax agreement between Thailand and the US.
