Hi. Im trying to make sense of this DTV and Im constantly coming up with more questions the more I read!!!!

1) Is the 10.000 baht fee the full cost of the visa? (Without using an agent)

2) If accepted, do you only need to complete the first 6 months of the activity in the whole 5 years?

3) If accepted, are you required to leave EVERY 180 days and if so, how long do you need to be outside Thailand for and when you return, do you get another 180 day stamp?

4) Is teaching online accepted?

I am over 50 and would qualify for the Non-O retirement visa but I want to continue receiving an income rather than just watch my own bank account reduce as I age! You cannot jump from a retirement visa and then start working or at least that is what I was advised but that was over 5 years ago

Online teaching supplies me with enough to live on easily in Thailand so I would much prefer to take this route if I am eligible.

I have the funds required (500.000)
