TLDR : Answer Summary

The ELITE VISA entry progress appears to be delayed, with no definitive updates from authorities. Some holders have managed entry through alternative means, like marriage visas, although this process is deemed tedious by many. Inquiries to Thailand Elite might provide the latest information, but there's speculation that the next phase may not occur within the year.

Marriage seems like the worse option with all the annual visa renewal requirements such as pictures of the martial bed, neighbors confirming of the marriage actually exists;stacks of photos just so much paperwork involved it’s not even worth getting married. Just live together.

that Elite visa is starting to look like a better deal even after you have paid ฿500,000 at least you can walk away from it any time

It went rather quiet on the subject after initially a announcement but they never ended up on the original list. Contact Thailand Elite to see if they have an update.
