I've only been asked once by an airline to see my flight information for leaving Thailand (I think it was Emirates or Qatar Airways that asked). If you're super worried? You can book something cheap with OnwardTicket, just in case.

Color me jealous. Because I still have property in CA, they still consider me a tax resident. Even though I've been in Thailand for almost two years now.

Just reiterating the sentiments above. You pay the day you sign the lease. For me that's been on the day I moved in, on the two condos I've had since moving out here.

In the provinces and Hua Hin You'll be absolutely fine. My monthly spending lands in the $2,500-$3k range. It feels like I'm living on a budget 3x that amount. Got a nice ocean view 2 bedroom condo in the posh area of town. Walking from my front door to the beach takes about 5-6 minutes, and I walk slow. Can go out to eat wherever and whenever I want. Get my hair washed at the salon a few times per week. Go to the barber for a hot towel shave once per week. Have a lady that picks up my laundry, brings it back all pressed and folded a couple days later. Like you, I don't drink too often. But I can keep a nice bottle of scotch and a bottle of wine on hand for when the desire hits. When my friends back in the US ask, I tell them it feels like I'm living a life without want. Living out here feels like how life is supposed to feel.

that's kinda what I'm doing. Not as intense as a 10-K sec filing. But using publically traded company annual reports as a reference.

Just wanted to connect with someone that's gone through this process already. I've seen some posts from LTR holders in the group, just none of the posts seem to be related to my scenario

oh I already have access to the data and permission to use it for my visa application. My questions are around details and formatting.

Added those details to the original post
