Blanked funds

I am currently on retirement extension, due to expire in September!

Traveling back to USA next week!

Do not plan to renew retirement extensionin September.

Will apply for 90 day non o visit family visa to return to Thailand in September.

So next step will be applying for extension based on married to Thai national!

Question is at present my bank balance above the 400,000 required!

Since I'm not planning to renew current extension.

Is it ok to go below the 400,000 until 2 months before applying for extension based on marriage!

Thanks for any feedback on this question!

I'm splitting it out because while it's about a retirement extension it's not related enough to stay in there.

My retirement extension was refused yesterday because I moved the 800K from one bank account to another (same bank in Thailand) for about a month, and then back to the original Fixed Deposit account. The original account dropped below 400K when I did that. But total deposits never dropped below 800K. I was told to leave and re-enter. Are there other options?
