Are tou sure you got one month free or were given a 60 day Visa Exempt entry?
Graham ******
The Over 50 Visa is the 90 day Retirement Visa which will be needed to get bank accounts. When their 800k deposits are seasoned for 2 months they apply for their 12 month Extensions of Stay, not a Visa. No pension is needed at any stage. I assume that the Pakistan Embassy does not provide the income affidavit.

@Robert ********
but if your last extension was using the 800k method you have the meet the 800k/400k requirements as well before you get the new extension based on 65k deposits

@Mike *****
This could be because you used this method before they changed their "rules" so you are allowed to continue using the pre-change method sometimes referred to as grandfathering.

You failed to meet the requirements of your current extension (i.e. maintain 800k for 3 months after approval then never go below 400k for the rest of the year) so you cannot get a new extension and will have to leave to start again with a new 90 day Non-O.
