TLDR : Answer Summary

The question revolves around whether a letter from the Australian Consulate that validates a Superannuation pension entitlement exceeding 800,000 Baht is sufficient to maintain a Non O Visa in Thailand. Commenters suggest considerations such as contacting the consulate directly for advice, using money transfer services for better exchange rates, and ensuring the documentation clearly states the monthly income amount.

They're the ONLY consulate that does those affidavits by online and post. Everyone else shows up at their consulate OR waits for the out reach program
