I hope no misunderstanding, I had my Thai girlfriend with me, they had most of the conversation because officer had very limited English skills. Because officer did not let me use my issued affidavit from Embassy she told me to open a bank account right away and start to transfer 65 000 baht for 2 months to get my first 1 year extension, that was on 21st October, 14th November I go back to Immigration. On 22nd October I made my first 65k transaction, the second one I will do on November 12th, the day before we go to my bank office to update bank book, get statements and a bank certificate officer also told us to get.
No not at Saraburi Immigration, can use 2 months 65k transaction to get my first 1 year extension, I will du so on Thursday. Then they told me to transfer 65 000 baht every single month for my next 1 year extension.
And if he's lucky their handouts is the same as when go back to apply for that extension, for us it was not yesterday, more documents needed, but of course your advice is the best there is.
