Yes, I did that. Monthly from last extension to build to 800,000THB two months before extension. As insurance, i kept the monthly up until extension to make sure of no problem with income method transition.
I agree that it is two months and that it up to us to decide whether to challenge anything which seems to conflict with the regulations. As they say, "There are times to hold them and times to fold them". .😀 I have an excellent relationship with the folks at Tak Immigration. If they tell me three months, I will do three months and not argue.They extend me all kinds of courtesies. As I mentioned in my post, my point was specific to Tak Immigration and FYI relative to that office.
FYI, I just did my O-A extension at Tak immigration. They required me to show my 800,000THB in the account for three months prior. Again, this is their rule.
Got it..90 day border runs while within the 1 year visa period and then 90 day reports when on the Extension to Stay. Thanks guys! I’ll stick with my O-A extension, even if married, unless things get more onerous with any new O-A Retirement Extension to Stay requirements. Just want to understand my options so I can react rationally and correctly if necessary...
Bangkok Bank Mae Sot printed out all 12 months of activity and provided a separate signed certification letter of the balance that day. 100 THB. This was for my retirement extension last month.
