@Martin *******
yep, left out the DON'T as in most offices don't require you to keep the funds in during the under consideration stamp, sorry thanx for catching it

Just so you're clear, there is no consulate letter the aussie consulate here in thailand stopped issuing stat decs for income from abroad at the end of 2018

you wanna meet the proof of funds by monthly income method you have to transfer in to the country a minimum of 65K baht a month, each month, every month for the previous 12 months before you apply for the next extension
Tod *********
If you got the yearly extension you're on now based on banked money method you can't take out all of the 800K or you void the extension for failing to meet the seasoning requirements

Remember you need to keep the 800K baht in the bank acount for 3 months after your yearly extension is granted and then the balance can't go below 400K until you apply for a new extension the following year.

So until you get a yearly extension via the 65K baht a month monthly income by international transfer method (if that's what you're doing next year) you can't let the balance go below 400K

@Tony ********
we're talking about an extension based on marriage to a thai right?
Tod *********
then you're fine to do what ever you want with the funds as long as it's 400k for 2 months before you're going to apply for the next yearly extension you're fine
Tod *********
The rules for the seasoning of funds for an extension based on marriage using banked money method are 400K baht in a thai bank account in your name only for 2 months before you apply for the yearly extension

MOST offices don't (thanx
@Martin *******
) request you keep the 400K baht in the account during the "under consideration" period from the stamp you get when you apply for the extension. Some do, but it is not an official rule

Once the year extension is inked into your passport there's no obligation to keep the funds in the account any longer.

Where are you in the process of your visa/extension etc???

You don't file a TM 28 (change of address) in bangkok, you or your landlord file a TM 30 (notification of foreigner in residence).

You do that at the main office out at the government complex (building B) on Chaengwattana Road,

That tm30, 90 report room is on the 3rd floor.
Tod *********
If you stamped back in on July 13th that means your 90 day report would have been due Oct 10th <- last friday (the day you stamped in was counted as day one)

That means you have until this friday Oct 17th to file a 90 day report without a fine of 2000baht for failure to file on time.

the answer to this question 𝗠𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗜 𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗮 𝟵𝟬 𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗜 𝗴𝗼? is yes you do file one on or before this Friday, or you pull a 2000baht failure to file on time fine when ever you do decide to file one

Best of luck with it

Should work as proof of onward travel

BUT

Remember the consulate has final say and if it's not enough they'll email you
