. No. Not 4k

@Sam ****

ThanXx . Thought about it. I'll be 70 in November. I think I'll keep my house for a place to visit until I get tired of long flights, maybe in 6 or 8 years. Then I'll sell it. That's the only way I could get an elite. I'm thinking 90 to100 thousand baht per month is ok for two,so it would be awhile before I could get 800k to plunk over. Im coming over on June 16th for a while, maybe long term.

Presentation still counts when making requests...

One way is to apply for a non-o visa;

Another is scootering through a hotel lobby into a pool at a law enforcement conference.

Both result in being allowed to stay longer than 60 days without those bothersome border bounces.

If you have 800k.baht in bank, then I think you only need $1900usd/mo. I have also heard if you have more monthly, they might let you slide on having the whole 800k.baht in bank. Maybe just 400k with 3k monthly? I don't know. I hope someone can sort us out and confirm or not.

@Paul ******

What visa do I use during the 12 consecutive months of 65,000+baht/mo deposits?

@Soeren *********

Yes, for 69 on soc.securoty US. About 100k baht/mo but only about 10k for the 800k baht in a Thai bank.

Which visa to stay long term and get married?

and...

It's accepted?... and not a hassle to use an agent for the 800k baht?

Thank you for any info.

@Tom *******

Thank you.

69, on u.s. social security + savings

+ house w.no mtg.

Yes, retirement visa

My question..

Apply retirement visa BEFORE I VISIT in June? OR. Arrive in bkk on regular u.s. passport and THEN apply for retirement visa?

And...

Is it accepted all over Thailand, and never a legal hassle to use an agent to assist re:bank accounts, etcetera?

Thank you very much for your time.

I don't get it.

Why not just search on

"Thailand visa site"?
