Can I switch from 800K to 65K monthly deposits for my visa renewal in Thailand?

Rok ********

Feb 25 till Oct 25 only 9 x 65,000 deposits: you will not be able to use the 65,000 route yet for 2nd extension. 3rd will be fine. You will need 800,000 2 months before October application (and prove you maintained 400,000 during the year + 800,000 for 3 months after 1st year extension)
