If you arrive on a 60 days exemption visa, but you wait 2 weeks to apply for TM30 (owning a house) will you get a fine ? Will it be a problem when applying for the non-immigrant O visa based on retirement ?

TLDR : Answer Summary
If you arrive in Thailand on a 60-day exemption visa and delay your TM30 filing for two weeks, whether you will incur a fine depends on local immigration enforcement. The TM30 is supposed to be submitted within 24 hours of arrival at your address (not the country). Although fines may be applied at the discretion of immigration officers, there are indications that re-submitting the TM30 before applying for your non-immigrant O visa should mitigate potential issues.

If you own the property, why not do TM30 online anytime you want?
TM30 is supposed to be submitted within 24 hours from arrival to that address, NOT Thailand. And no problem you re-submitted again. The latest dated report is the one active and valid.
Submit before you go to apply for your visa/extension and the get a receipt. Then you would be fine.
As he said, depends on your local immigration office but worst case scenario is less than 2000 baht

A TM30 address registration is supposed to be filed within 24 hours of your arrival into Thailand.
Whether or not you will be fined for not having a TM30 filed timely will be up to the Thai Immigration Officers when you apply for any visa or extension of stay.
