using an agent to deposit the money and withdraw them immediately after is violating the rules and the agent bribes an immi officer. I don't understand how you can conclude from what I said that immi don't like moving from using an agent. The corrupt officer don't like he won't receive his bribe anymore that's for sure. Sometimes offices are checked and if that control finds out there is a corrupt officer then he is probably not an officer anymore and all cases approved by him are examined and results in cancelation of the illegal approvals. Besides that immi can anytime they want request to see your bankbook - you wouldn't want that if you used an agent to deposit and withdraw.

@Nick ******

no not true if you can show immi monthly deposits of 65k baht the previous 12 months then no need for an agent for the 2nd and forward. This is what I read in this group. And by the way it is not "should" but "have to use an agent every year" - which you don't if you have the funds.

stupid remark

@Bradley ********

very good to hear they can be fair 👍

@Bradley ********

why? because the foreigner usually gets the blame no matter what happened. A well known quote from the police : if you hadn't been there the accident would not have happened. And it is not a joke. Front and back camera is necessary and don't give the recording to the police but to the insurance company.

they want to make sure the couple is actually living together. Some have been cheating that's probably the reason

@Brandon ***********

strange because the purpose is to verify that the couple actually live together and that has nothing to do with retirement extension
