Michelle Le Pla you sound like an Aussie, so am I. I went did the evisa and was directed to the Sydney Consulate. When you get to the visa section choose non immigrant O and in the next drop down menu choose "other". The next drop down menu will show pensioner over 50 y/o. Choose that one. They will check your funds and must be up to date to the day you apply. The good part of this visa is that there in no bs compulsory Thai health insurance. You can use that non o visa to open a Bangkok Bank account. Since coming here I have extended my visa and all is good. Good luck.
