Can I switch from a monthly income option to an 800,000 Baht deposit for my retirement visa in Thailand?

Why not just apply for your visa through the embassy in Canberra or the Sydney consulate if a NSW resident. It's not that difficult and you can use a visa agent in Australia eg C.I.B.T visas have office in Melbourne
