Anonymous participant If the visa is issued for a soft power activity you need to have an independent means of support, it could be savings, dividends, income from rental properties, any sort of passive income really

But you can apply for a Non-O...

Anonymous participant perhaps that's the problem "the exact same proofs for work portfolio"

@Mike ********

no, they were both doing 90 day reports rather than extensions. By certified balance I assume you mean the letter from the bank to immigration? I'm pretty sure this can be up to 7 days old and just the bank book needs updating on the day. If your bank isn't open I guess you might need to head to Watthana Nhakon or somewhere nearby to get the letter

I know a number of people who have been to immigration in Aran this week. It was closed on Monday but then reopened

@Mike ********

and the province?

Of course you can be questioned and even refused entry but it is highly unlikely

If it's an instant access cash ISA you should be OK, otherwise no

What province are you in?

Have you actually checked the immigration office is closed?

Pick which option you want to go with and stick to it. If you want to work remotely from Thailand then workation is the option you want to go with. If you don't want to work remotely from Thailand then go with soft power. You can't chop and change
