only if you have a bank account opened

@Robert ********

yes but this time it will pass over the desk with an incentive to clear it , I imagine!

@Nongnuch *******

ahh that’s clearer I’ll go dig out bank accounts and letter from pension provider . Thanks

Thanks guys for responses we haven’t opened our online applications yet but the website for requirements might be old , asks copy of pension over £1000 or bank statement with 5k showing, confirmation of residence, health insurance includes covid cover , perhaps it is an old notice , it’s definitely for non o 90 day . So we will open the Thai visa to complete and perhaps we can do it a little at a time to see what it asks .

I was actually interested in the answer to this , any cookery schools in jomtiem that is linked to the dev visa application? Like many my friend and others like to visit for 180 days so looking for best way as they get hassle , at the moment they are considering 90 day non o in uk then extend to year retirement visa , sorry to cut in your post .

@Robert ********

so then you have more “ history” than my friend; the two trips last year were his first to Thailand, retired and being encouraged by friends to travel . So glad you haven’t been stopped yet

he came in September to December extension of 30 days to 60 days then went home to uk for 5 weeks and returned late January that’s when he had the hassle , the I O lady gave him a real hard time .
