Hi this is my first post here, but i do read the posts daily. My question is: When I last went to immigration on Jomtien to renew my marriage extension the immigration officer asked me whether I had a UK pension. I though that this was odd because as I understand it one only needs to bring 40K monthly into Thailand from abroad to qualify for the extension. Does it matter where the 40K comes from, so long as its outside Thailand? I transfer the money monthly from my personal UK account to my Thai bank account. It is not in the form of a pension.

Thanks in advance.

Jomtien / Pattaya Immigration instruction re Extension of Stay (retirement)... Bring bank book back at 90 Days to show there is 800,000 Thb still in the account...

"The form you are given explaining all the updated financial criteria has at the bottom a date 90 days from the time you apply for your renewal and it says you must return at said date with your updated Thai bank passbook, your are told to sign it that you acknowledge this procedure"
