Chiang Mai online appointments for extensions

Have they removed marriage extensions as an option to book schedules ?? I dont see marriage as a possibility to book ?

2nd one.. They are listing e-extensions on the CM immigration website but I believed that was only bangkok VFS not CM VFS (the website seems a little unclear).

Hi all,

I arrived in Phuket with a Non O Spouse visa for 90 days issued by Thai Consulate- Sydney. Upon arrival I searched to open a bank account and was finally successful. I now have 400,00 baht in a Thai bank account. However, it will not have aged 2 months before I apply for a 1 year visa extension. What can I do ??

Thank you in advance for your advice.

ATTENTION MEMBERS: Marriage extensions of stays

There are NO changes to the financial requirements OR the seasoning requirements for yearly extensions of stays based on marriage to a thai.

Using banked money the 400K baht needs to be in a thai bank account in your name only for 2 months prior to you applying for the yearly extension. Keep in mind some offices (Bangkok for one) also tell you to keep the 400K baht in the bank during the under consideration period <- There is NO official rule about this..

As far as using monthly income you can meet the requirements two ways; you can legally work here with a salary of over 40K baht a month, holding a work permit, show your tax documents, your contract, etc

OR

you can transfer IN to the country from abroad into a thai bank account in your name only a minimum of 40K baht a month for the previous 12 months before you apply for your extension.

For extensions based on marriage there is NO combination method where you use income and banked money <- that is ONLY available for extensions based on retirement.
