Can I apply for a 90-day Non-Immigrant Visa (O) in Thailand before receiving my pension?

 honestly, if you have a financial advisor, best to speak to them. I didn't even know TTR existed until mine told me.

@Dean *******
 you can do it that way (TTR), if you still work. If you don't plan to work again, the whole super can become pension, with all interest tax free.
