@Tod ********
could the poster take the family extension for 60 days...then get the 1 year extension after...this would move the next years extension forward by 60 days.

The new (over a year) 90 day report site doesn't ask for a TM6.

yup... Like most interactions with immigration, it's totally doable by ones self...I just personally find the ฿400k method easier and less time consuming since I don't have a big staff or in house accountant.

My personal experience, having tried the income method a couple of times in the beginning... was that is was just a whole lot simpler and faster to park the 400k (in my case $13k is a USD acct) and let it sit gaining interest.

There is alot more paperwork required for the income method that requires a lot more leg work to collect from a lot more sources.

Again, my experience only.

In addition to the correct answer from Lloyd, I will recommend the Thai citizenship group as well.

There are many users that are in the process there and share their knowledge on the PR/Citizenship process. It has been a helpful source of information for my citizenship application.😊

I just did mine online 2 weeks ago. Using firefox browser.

I received my acceptance email 2 days after filing.

They accept my Foreign Currency Account for the Non-O Thai Wife extension. So I would assume they will for retirement extension.

Be cautious of the exchange rate though.

And, for me, I could only get the bank Letter dated the same as my application day at the main branch of BKK Bank, which was a bit of a pain.

it works for me on my phone just now.

Did you scroll down the announcement and click the agreement box?

Yes it works in Chrome, Firefox and IE.

Actual visas (the sticker in the passport) are not transferred to a new passport but remain valid the their duration.

Extensions of stay and entry stamps are transfered.

No cost for this. You need both passports, the letter from the embassy and there is a form at immigration to fill out.
