The visa was used the moment he entered Thailand, what's important are the stamps in his passport. If he has a re-entry permit his stamp will remain live, if he doesn't the stamp will end when he exits

Why doesn't he wait until the 20th to leave if he plans to come straight back? And yes he should cancel the work permit.

There are options in Wise which you select. For reason for transfer select "Funds for long term stay in Thailand" and select yes for "Will you require proof of Foreign Exchange Transaction"

not really. You don't need a lease or a return flight and departure cards were done away with a few years back. Depending on the immigration office you will use you may need to show some sort of "long term" accommodation but this can be as simple as a letter from a hotel confirming you are a long term resident. Define long term between yourself and the hotel.

I understand what you are asking but as your DTV is issued against a passport that no longer exists I'm suggesting you contact the issuing consulate and request they re-issue the DTV PDF against your new passport

the problem with that is there are no definitive answers to many questions. Using the above as an example my immigration office requires the funds are in place for 2 months for the 1st extension but 3 months for subsequent extensions, even though the official police order states 2 months for all extensions.

You do not. It's obvious you used an agent to procure your visa but even they can't get you a 15 month visa. If you look in your passport you will see that you have a 90 day visa plus a 12 month extension of stay for a total of 15 months

so you intend to live in Thailand for 6 months of the year. That's a clear indication you are not a tourist. Get a 90 days Non-O visa and then a 12 month extension with re-entry permit each year then you won't have any problems.
