I am Canadian,63 years old,will go to Thailand on 60 days tourist visa.When in Thailand will convert tourist visa into non O retirement visa.I will use affidavit of income from Canadian consulate in Bangkok to prove my finances.
When do I need to show this affidavit?
1) when applying for my first non O visa
2) my first extension of non O visa (90 days after receiving non O visa))
3) when applying AND than when extending my first non O visa.
If it is #3, timing of getting affidavit will be very important since affidavit from Canadian consulate is valid for only 90 days.

I'm almost more confused after coming back from the immigration office in Bangkok. I have the money deposited, They need an official letter from Bangkok Bank stating that the money came from overseas and said I should go to the Silom branch? I went to a different branch previously and they were confused by what I was asking for.

So I’m seeing conflicting advice–I’m applying to convert 60 day tourist visa from USA to non-O retirement at Chaengwattana. I’ve had the ฿800K in Thai bank for just a few days. It’s been in us bank prior. My visa expires 13 December, I’ve booked r/t flight to Hong Kong for around 11-15 December. Can I apply for non O now or do I need to wait till money seasoned 60 days-either apply fir another tourist visa in HK or get visa exemption when I return from HK?
