If you are not a tax resident of Australia then you do not receive the tax free threshold and pay a minimum of 44 cents in the $ tax. Much more than in Thailand. And the tax authorities in Thailand do not know how much you are taxed in Australia, So I expect that Thailand will tax you at 15% or at 0.

First, it depends on your country of passport. If you paid tax on that pension in your home counrty and that country has a dual tax agreement with Thailand (like USA, Great Britain, Australia, New ZSealand and many other countries) then it will not be subject to Taxation by Thailand.

Not fine. He cannot get the visa before her is married.

Before you can get a maariage visa (from a Thai Embassy/consulate) outside of Thailand or an extension of stay based on being married to a Thai (from an Immigration office inside of Thailand) you need to have your Thai marriage recognised by Thai authouities. Getting married in Thailand is a complicated process. The first step is to get a letter from your embassy stating that you are free to marry.

If your Thai licence has expired by over 1 year then you are not able to renew it, You must start the whole process again.

You must be legally married before applying for a marriage visa from outside of Thailand or for an extension of stay based on marriage from inside Thailand.

Heart medication is readily available in Thailand. But you may need a doctor to advise on local alternatives to ones you are using.

Should not be a problem. Even to get a medical certificate for Thai licence, there was no physical examination or questions from the doctor.
