sorry Sue.. I have been corrected.. the 2 month period of the 800k is not in embassy website.. I have attached a website from Siam Legal which should clear up any queries.. The 2 months period 'does' exist πŸ™‚

Assuming you are getting a retirement extension of 12 months in November?

-800k thb has to be in the account a full 2 months before applying for the 12 month retirement extension (so, had to be in there SEPTEMBER).

-You can continue to deposit your 65k (shown as International Transfer) and withdraw it straight away and spend it.

- you need 12x of these 65k monthly deposits before you can touch the full 800k.

- 3 months after successful 12 month extension you can withdraw and spend some of the 800k thb, as long as it does not go below 400k thb.

Suggest you read up more on official Thai Embassy websites.

If you want to get around leaving the 800thb in a Thai Bank, suggest you go look for a Visa agent.

A little off topic.. but I always 'donate' all my coins saved up. I find it better donated than waste time organising counting/banking etc.. just for a few hundred baht.

Looks like a 'damaged' passport to me. You should consider which option you can afford to take:-

1. fix it now and get a new passport, or

2. deal with any issue/problem (if it actually eventuates) at Immigration point. Is the 'stress' now worth it?
