The only thing incorrect is your ability to read, comprehend, or fit your whole big ass head in the picture frame. If youre applying for a Non-O at a thai embassy in your country, you don't need money in a thai bank. Period.

Apply for a Non-O at the Thai embassy in the US. Then the money doesn't need to be in Thailand until you apply for a yearly extension.

Right, so it had nothing to do with visas, it was because the phone number associated with your account isn't linked to you.

If you've had 65k a month for the last 12 consecutive months you shouldn't need an income affidavit. All you need is a statement from you bank (you have to order it, takes 2-5 days). Which immigration office did you go to? Its possible they misunderstood you, or didnt care to ask the details.

@Simon ********
How are you trying to prove the 65k? You have 65k a month for the past 12 months going into a thai account?

@Lynnette ******
The initial Non-O needs to be 800k. Your 2nd yearly extension (and then on) as long as you deposit 65k a month into a thai bank account you can switch to the monthly income method, but that's because you'll have 12 months of 65k into a thai bank.

Not sure why youd ask on the Wise fb group, has nothing to do with visas.

For a retirement visa with the monthly 65k deposit, you can either do that with 65k a month going into a thai bank account, or an income affidavit from your embassy, and most embassies don't issue them anymore. That means, and wait for it, you can't use to monthly 65k for your retirement visa. You'll need to put 800k in a bank account.
