I have the stamp for underconsideration being for 1 year extension of stay based on marriage. Been doing this for 10 years now. Today recieved a phone call from immigration wanting an update on bankbook. The required funds have always been in the bank and on appplication for extension letters from the bank were produced as required along with all the other documents required. This year was the first time the immigration police did not come to our home as they normally do after application. So it seems like they are now checking on funds whilst under consideration. I went to the bank to update the bankbook at the ATM and supplied copies to immigration of which they wanted the same day Immigration in my province. did say that Immigration in BKK is making it harder. All documents are sent to BKK for approval. So lets see what happens now.

Good morning all and thanks for adding me to the group....I would really appreciate any sound advice. I arrived with a non O visa from the U.K. on 15th April. I am now considering a retirement visa, but if I transfer the 800k funds from the U.K. this week, it wouldn’t have been in the bank for 60 days before my current visa expires. So my question is....can I extend my current one by a minimum of 30 days, then apply for the retirement? Thanks Stu

Good afternoon Thai visa advice members.

I am currently holding a visa non-immigrant O Thai wife, based on a work permit requirement.

I am planning to change the requirement based on the 400k in the bank.

What is the process to do so? Do I have to redo all the process again? (Including cancellation wp, etc...) or just present the money seasoned proofs to officers (CW) and it would be fine?

Thank you for advices.

Hi guys,

My son has an ED visa for going to school and I have an O visa as his guardian. We will be doing our first check ins soon, so it will be time.for me to show immigration my funds in a Thai bank. It took a while to get it transferred over (TransferWise required unexpected additional verification due to the large amount), so I'll be about a week short of the required time.it needs to sit in my Thai Bank if I want to check in by the correct date.

My question is, I know with some visas you're allowed to check in up to a week late... is that the case with mine or will I have to choose between showing up late and getting charged per day, or going in on time with funds that are a week short of being seasoned and begging forgiveness?

Thanks for any advice :)

I am due to renew my retirement extension and have a question concerning bank funds please bear with me whilst I try to explain:Being as the pound has gone down the toilet my pension is shy of the 800.000.00 baht - I deposited funds to cover it on 3rd of May and my extension is up on the 2nd of August - As the pound continues to drop I would like to renew my extension now - my question is will the three month rule on cash in the bank trip me up ? 5th May until today is 77 days !
