ORIGINAL POSTER
Wanted to post my experience for the LTR VISA pensioner. I am a retired military officer- 53 years old. My pension /VA was enough to qualify for the amount. I was also able to prove that TRICARE was sufficient to qualify for the medical insurance. I downloaded the coverage from the milconnect page and also provided a letter from the TRICARE office on Okinawa which stated that coverage was available for costs in excess of $100,000.

The BOI personnel were very responsive from the online process. It probably would have processed faster, if I had responded quicker to their requests. After any response, they moved the process along within one business day.

Pretty straight forward for the application/process. I applied on 22 June and received my 10 year VISA time stamp today from the One Stop in Chamchuri office today- 26 July. I was in the office right at one hour. Initial stamp was the 5 year through 2028.

As I will be traveling a couple times a year back to the USA, the fast track through immigration will be welcomed. Also I will not have to report, as the one year timeline restarts whenever I re-enter the Kingdom. I was under a non-Imm O (didn’t have to cancel or do anything to that VISA, they wrote a note in my passport), so this new visa will also free up the funds I have sitting in a Thai bank account.

Very happy with this new VISA

Hi, I've emailed the Thai Embassy in Washington DC but they have yet to reply. So my question is:

I am a Retire US Military member. My medical is via TriCare (US Government). To apply for a Non-O based on Retirement the rules are I need to supply an Original Medical Policy. TriCare does not issue Policies.

While in Thailand I pay for medical treatments and apply for reimbursements, I have done this in the past.

So my question is what can I supply as proof of Insurance?

Thanks in advance. dz
