For info. All 3 required a proof of 800k in the bank not just 1 of the 3.

Sorry here is the letter I got from my hotel saying its a TM30 but im not convinced.
Andy ********
Okay so today I went to immigration and got a 30 day extention stamp in my passport so im now good until 17th May , my money arrived in the bank and I got my bank book updated and asked for a letter confirming that the funds came from outside of Thailand. The bank gave me this letter and said it was suitable for immigration but it doesnt show that the funds came from outside of Thailand. Can anyone advise if this letter together with a copy of my bank passport be adequate to chnge my tourist Visa to a Non O over 50 visa. Additionally I asked my hotel for a TM30 and they gave me this which im sure isnt a TM30 but proof I am staying in Thailand........ In confused by what a TM30 is and how I get one and also If the letter from my bank will be adequate. Many thanks in advance.

Thanks Todd. I understand the difference and just wanted clarification. My money has arrived today and apparently immigration is totally full so ill get an extention tomorrow and then ask to change. Many thanks again for your help.👍

Can I ask if the photocopy shows enrty stamp and the TM6 on the same page that this is okay and they dont want 2 separate copies for the TM6 and entry stamp.?
Andy ********
Great, many thanks for that. I dont suppose anyone knows if I can do this at Chiang Mai Immigration or if I need to look elsewhere.
Andy ********
Im in Chiang Mai at the moment and this is where I plan to rent an apartment if the Visa granted. Just to clarify the terminology around the money in the bank doesnt require seasoning is that meaning it doesnt need to stay there for 2 months etc?
Andy ********
Apparently this advice was issued by the Government today (Maybe Boris Johnstones address but I cant find it yet). Sure if you can get back then this is the way forward.

@Tod ********
I'm actually here at the moment on a METV and was thinking of coming back later in the year or even early next year depending on family health issues back in the UK. I didnt just want the Ed Visa as a get around but genuinely want to enrol in a language school. If I cant get a ME ed visa I'll go down the retirement visa route for which I'm eligible. Thanks again.👍
