Will I receive a full year extension for my Non-O retirement visa if my UK passport expires shortly after?

@Tod ********

that's why I am making the trip back to Canada, as a commonwealth country we can renew online with about a week turnaround versus all the paperwork and expectant wait here

Does the American embassy notarize income from abroad for retirement visa requirements in Thailand?

@Paul ********

if you get an affidavit of income if your embassy provides then you can get a Non 0 retirement in the first 90 days

Can I apply for a Thai tourist e-visa while not being a resident of France?

Kevin *********

Say Canada. That's where your from and have a passport for. Easier. Don't overthink. Unless you have notified CRA you are surrendering your Canadian tax status you are simply a resident of Canada even if living and working overseas. You have a Canadian bank account, credit card? Best keep your tax status as is.

@Helen *******

Thanks very much. Odd one for me as my CRA shows no income because I retired early and just live off my savings and dividends. Hopefully an investment portfolio statement will suffice as it did for my OA.

@Helen *******

thanks, that's an odd email address. I have a letter I used for my original OA I got in Canada and I will update it when I go. What exactly did you provide them to get an affidavit? I wonder if a letter alone from my bank in Canada is sufficient as proof of income?

Kevin *********

Heres what you need for an O. See point 5.if you get an income verification from an embassy you don't need transfer $800,000 baht and you would then only require insurance for your initial sixty day visa if you went that route. Far cheaper. But not all embassies still provide this service.

@Tod ********

you don't need the $800,000 if you provide an embassy income verification correct?
