Will a letter from the Australian Consulate validating a letter from my Superannuation saying I'm entitled to draw a Pension higher than the 800,000 Bht be suffice to maintain my Non O Visa .?

Being fleecing by exchange fees is doing my head in .
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
