How old are you ? and are you still. Or need to work ? Many farang live with family in the villages.

Age and work status, will get some experts to respond.

You didn't mention if you've been here before. Did you meet and marry stateside.

Defer any talk of agents, unless have been here, explored, etc.

It is an easy process if you meet requirements.

Been here 21 yrs

@Chris *****

Always #1 son or mother run the show.

Been the farang bldg on family land in Petchabun 20 yrs ago.

Oh, love Oregon....big difference

@Chris ******

I believe I texted " if you have extention already, based on income " , thats how you should continue.

Not a letter ! but bank statements showing mo income, with letter from bank.

@Chris ******

if you have extension already based on income you just continue as long as FTT stays above 65k.

do not need any nesting funds.

@Mar ****

?...things get easier with a smile

@David ******

extention, but will need 12 mo's income from overseas, or nested 800k.

I prefer the income, rather than nest virtually interest free a large amount.

Insure any monthly, is over 65k, with fluctuating conv rates, I always exceed to cover.

@Jeffrey ***********

get new agent, of have her ro it.

@Jan *****************

I agree , I honestly can't recall, as so many years ago. I don't believe, or recall nesting funds, only my monthly income. Requirements have changed over the years . But can certainly agree, a criteria is needed.

When 1st came, knew a few that hadn't had visa in decades, pretended to be jewelers or guides feeding off the tourist trade.. any income went straight toward bar tab.

@Jan *****************

there are pro's snd con's to it, but Govt wants to be assured you have means to support yourself here.

A bit silly as if you don't, there aren't agencies to assist, and unless work permit, can't work.
