Hello everyone! Thanks to the kind advice I got here last month, my 1 year extension of my Non-O visa based on marriage went pretty well at Chaeng Watthana and tomorrow is the day to finally get the stamp after the "under consideration" period. I am much grateful for this group and the sheer amount of work from the admins and moderators. We're so lucky to have you guys! 

On to my question:

The immigration officer who processed our application last month was not clear about what I need to bring tomorrow, and I was curious if I need to update my bank book again in the morning. The issue is that it's a fixed deposit account and the minimum transaction I can make to update the book is 2000 thb. I'd like to avoid this if possible.

Just wanted to check with this group to know if I need a transaction + update and if I need anything else for tomorrow to avoid any surprise.

Thanks in advance, as always and you all have a great day!

As a rule in Section L-2 <- the section that you go to when your under consideration stamp from a marriage extension runs out you need to update your passbook on the date you apply (there are banks down stairs) and then you copy the data page of the bank book and the last page showing the balance (there are copy shops downstairs)

Bangkok bank will update the bank book at the counter with a CF line (carried forward) dated on the day you do it. I'd did mine in the morning of presentation to the IO and it was accepted as proof of current balance updated on the day. This was at Surin. May not be acceptable at all IOs

IF they said there isn't anything you need to bring, then I wouldn't need to bring anything. I recommend bringing 2K THB with you, JUST IN CASE you need to update your bankbook.
