"not like to see"? They can always look for transfers out again?

is there no appeal in the immigration office (ie not at a port of entry--ie a supervisor, the boss?)

@Richard *******

this worries me--i will go to Hua Hin immigration with some credit advice notes from BKK bank from abroad, as i also have to top up. They can't expect it to be in one payment surely?

5 mins at Bluport mall Hua Hin for the 90 days. Take the missus on a Wednesday lunchtime, excellent second hand clothes market in the basement near immigration and 20% off at Fuji

@Tod ********

thanks a lot

sorry to belabour the point, but to be clear?

@Tod ********

many thanks, but does one have to apply for the extension based on marriage 30 days before the expiry of the extension for retirement, or does the 30 day under consideration period count as part of a future extension?

if changing from an extension based on retirement to one based on marriage MUST one apply 30 days before the retirement extension expires--ie leaving the 400k in the bank for THREE months prior to the expiry of the retirement extension? Can i wait if applying for an extension based on support of my Thai son until just before the retirement extension expires? Assuming all other docs and requirements are OK. My problem is the timing/ availability of the 400k. I may be OK with the monthly 40k plus but as a plan B???

good luck
