No, as far as I know there is no medical O visa. There is a medical DTV or if you are hospitalized they can get you a visa while under care, but that is more of a “ I am not overstaying I can’t leave type thing” ie emergency.

No and no. You need to put money in a Thai bank for the retirement visa and they are cracking down on people doing border bounces. You also can’t legally work on a retirement visa.

If you truly make decent money look into the wealthy pensioners ltr visa or the privilege visa.

I did mine through Chicago and only used one months statement but the amount was quite a bit above the minimum. Also I was one of the early ones to get it so requirements may have changed. The only additional thing they asked for was a copy on my resume I guess to verify I had been working in my field for awhile.

They are correct. If you can show the 65k/month transfers for 12 months solid, ie the second year, you may be able to convert to that method. As always depends on you immigration office and the mood of the person you are dealing with at that moment. Either way make sure to keep the necessary funds in your account until the conversion is complete. If you drop below the minimums they can and have said your visa was invalid so you have yo start over.

You only have to go to South Dakota for a day to get residency and a driver's license.

I never said different names for the same thing. I said different names for forms used for different things. Google could have given an answer in 5 seconds and not wasted anyone's time but here we are.

the tenants can’t be fined, but the tenant needs the tm30 for a bunch of stuff. So if the owner doesn’t fill it out they look to the tenant to pay so things move forward.

very little need for your comment. Mine was a simple answer as he requested.

They are different forms for different things. Simple enough answer?
