Hi, I'm on a Non O, Retirement visa, and have been using monthly income for extensions. I am thinking of changing to 800k in the bank. My extension is due on 26 September. When would I need to have the money in the bank, and would I have to have it shown as being from a foreign source?

As a side question, I have noticed in 2020 the extension was to 24th Sept, and in 2021 and since has been stamped 26 Sept. No big deal, I'm just curious on that point.

Hi all,

A relative is heading over to Thailand early August.

She is:

-Over 50

-UK national

Last year she stayed for 6 months (just under 180 days) and looking at her passport she went out on a TR (60 days) and extended it twice for 60 days each.

She was hoping to do the same this year but I've been looking into it and I suspect that these extensions were allowed due to covid rules and now it appears that there is only the option of a 60 day TR plus 30 day extension whilst there.

Is this correct? It seems fairly clear but I've been a little confused by the latest info coming out regarding extension to the STV.

I've also been looking into applying for a non-O (retirement) as she seems to pass the rules listed but I'm guessing I'm leaving it a little late to get the required docs and approval.

Thanks for any help.

How long in advance can an Imm-O visa be extended? With COVID-19 are they able to extend it earlier??????
