ORIGINAL POSTER
First of all: this group really helped me with to prepare for my Non-O visa (Thai/American spouse) and I wanted to share my experience to hopefully help others:

I had Non-O visa that expired on May 15th and I went to Chanwattana yesterday.

- Got there at 6:02pm and q #18, handed out outside). They let us get inside building with seat number assigned to each q number (told officer that my wife will come close to opening and she insisted on giving her q number as well: #25) you can sit at your seat or get food downstairs, which open at 6:30

- the officer came around each applicant to check on your papers. (I was planning on getting 90 days but she said there is no 90 days. Only 60 days or 1 year. Handed 3 more papers to filled out (2 for me and 1 for the wife: acknowledgments to add to the pile.

- my wife came at 8am and they let us get inside the office at 8:25am and got another q (#6)

- got call on to booth about 9am

> application form with photo

> 3 newly filled out acknowledgments

> Passport copy with all stamped pages

> copy of TM 6

> wife Thai ID copy

> wife Thai house registration (at Chiang Mai)

> condo lease in Bangkok

> asked for condo owner copy of Thai ID (which was attached to lease).

> asked for the condo owner copy of Thai house registration (which we didn’t have)

> computer print out of report (which the officer wasn’t too happy, wanted traditional report) but accepted.

> married certificate and translation copy (asked to show the original)

> Print out google map with condo address

> Bank statements (cost 100 THB for past 6 months printout)

> Bank book: which I had put in over 400,000 THB 2 months ago BUT at one time about 20 days into first deposit from foreign bank, I was below 400k. So, you’re supposed to have no lower than 400k consistently.

>> because of the condo owner house registration copy and the bank less than 400k at one point, I got 60 days visa, which expired on Nov. 25th. If I had both I could get 1 year Visa.

>> I needed to make up another 20 days on $ amount, but can not apply for another visa more than 30days of your current visa expiration. now I’m planning to go back early Nov. to get my 1 year visa.

- side note: I had 1 year Non-O visa at Chiang Mai before which the immigration offers 4 of them came to check (within the 30 days) talked to neighbors and took pictures (I’d assume it’s the same process here in Bangkok) I could not get 1 year visa as I moved to BKK and had to start all over again.

I hope this info help others and thank you for all the advices that I get here.
