@Michael *******
explain the 120 plus 120 without getting the Visit Thai Family extension

@Brian ****
The solution is to research what you are planning before arriving in Thailand and arrive with a Non-O and proceed from there

@Kyung *****
so are you still in the US or already in Chian Mai, your post is so confusing

@Kyung *****
they will because you will be applying for a Non-OA not a Non-O

@Ian *********
My Non-O was similar, 19 days, 2 days before flight

@Ivan ***********
so factor in all the travelling then, every 3 months plus getting the new METV every 8-9 months may require a return flight "home" so not cheap for many

@Eva ********
that may be office specific, as this says they are general rewquirements but always check with your office for their checklist before applying

How does it work out cheaper than entering with a Non-O and getting an extension for 1900B each year (and, with careful planning, the 800k is only needed for just over 5 months then 400k for the rest of the first year but, if your Embassy does the income affidavit, there is no minimum bank balance)?
