Thanks in advance. I will be going to BKK immigration at the beginning of July to get my first one-year extension for my O Visa. My 90 day expires August 3. This is what they already have in their possession. 1-Copy of my one-year lease. 2- Map drawing of residence. 3-K Bank statement and 4-K Bank letter with 800,000. 5-Picture of TM30 submission. 6-TM87. Am I understanding correctly that when I go back to Immigration next week, I need a NEW TM7 and a NEW recent bank statement? If yes, then what else do I need to have with me given that they already have what I listed above in my packet. My 800,000 has not dipped below that amount since my last visit.

TLDR : Answer Summary
To obtain a one-year extension for your O Visa in Bangkok, you must bring all necessary documents each time, as previous submissions are not referenced. You will need to provide a new TM7 form and an up-to-date bank statement (must be within 7 days old). Additionally, consult with the CW office for the latest requirements specific to your situation.

They don't have anything already in their possession. You have to provide everything, every time you apply. There's no referencing of documents you previously provided.

In Bangkok, bank letters have to be up to 7 days old. You don't need TM87 for an extension.

The best is go to the CW office to get the latest handout of requirements for 1-year extension based on being over 50.

Attached is a general information for a 1-year extension based on retirement but you need the office specific requirements list.

I don't think it's case by case. You need to provide bank letter, transaction, and passbook updated on the day of the application

Thanks for the info. When I was at the office for my initial 90 day they asked I go downstairs to get my K-bank book stamped for that day so it sounds like this is a case-by-case issue. I'll find out.
