I got my answer.

The cost I was referring to was either the 65k monthly or 800k.

I wanted to know if I could apply fir a incountry retirement visa with the monthly income not the 800k ( cost ).

All the other costs I know.

Thanks for your patience with me.

I will apply for the non O visa and extend it after the 3 months to 1 year.

I was just trying to get away from the 800k and wojld have preferred the monthly 65k but apparently can not be done when applying in Thailand.

Will stop asking so many questions in future.

Thanks and be blessed.

it seems like I can not get myself over to everyne to understand.

I got married to a thai in 2007 and she stayed with me ĂŹn South Africa 17 years even before marriage.

She went back to Thailand in Feb 2021 as her mother had a stroke. I still support her. Sending her money every month.

Nkw I have not seen her for over 11 months.

She want me to stay with her in Thailand.

Tnerefore I have to have the 400k marriage or 800k retiremet in the bank.

I have a pension of
*****
baht plus monthly.

I wanted to use this to get my retirement visa.

I have letters as proof.

I am sometimes concerned as some people say on the second year the want to see the 800k in bank.

I then also tried to get the paperwork sorted out but in SA it is not so easy.

I can not even get a police clearance cerrificate.

I have funds for mendical covid and everything needed.

My problem is to get all the paperwork in place.

That is also why I asked about the O visa so I can rather do it all in Thailand.

I just do not want to be rejected for some reason.

Also not the second year and wach year thereafter.

I think that it might be confusing why I ask all these questions over and over.

the problem is getting all the paperwork legalized for the .arried visa. One department contradict thee other. I went ti a Notary public lawyer. It is then supposed to go rhe high court. The lawyer say it can not be done. Yhen it mist go to Dirco before to the Thai embassy.

Dirco want the origanal marriage certificate but rhen it will not have the red seal on it from Notary public lawyer meaning they will.not accept it at rhe embassy.

That is why I vhange or try different avenues. It is not easy this side.

If Thailand would have accepted my marriage certifivate with the visa all whould have been fine. I spoke ro the embassy.

They want it offenticated by Notary piblic, then by the high court then by Dirco and lastly by the embassy. I do not know how others mannaged to legalized their marriages in Thailand.

As you can see...that is why I struggle and therefore want to divert back.to retirement visa.

I hope it make sense what I am trying to explain.
