It's a two part question. I was also wondering if I should just get the non-immigrant O visa. I want to do a combination of Social Security and residual income to reach the $65k Baht per mont requirment, if I go that rout.

if you want to go the 65k transferred into Thailand for 12 consecutive months for retirement your first year MUST BE 800k in your Thai bank account not dropping below that for 3 months after your first extension stamp and CANNOT drop below 400k for the rest of the year.

Thanks! You're the third person to tell me the same thing about the first year requirement of 800k in a Thai Bank.

It's possible to convert to ED from within Thailand as long as your school can support the application.
