This is why it's important to work with a reliable visa agency that has been around for many years, and can properly provide you a long term plan as well as services.
Most options will range from 10,000 thb a year to 100,000 thb a year depending on how much time you want to put into it.
The lower priced options are usually DIY, and require time commitments like school, and the more expensive options are usually more complex, and structured but require much less time involvement to maintain.

For those who are in Bangkok we do offer this as a VIP full service option where our staff goes to your address and pickups, and drops off your documents.
However the service fee for this can range from 2,000 to 3,500 thb depending on the time of year, and current situation. We only require passport, and we handle everything else on your behalf.
We can do this for those who are outside of bangkok as well but it may make less sense.
