not my experience today, they didn't want the yellow house book (at the DLT) or pink ID, each office as interprets the requirement differently. Last time I did it 5 years ago, they didn't accept my yellow book but accepted my wifes house book. It changes. My immigration department accepted the yellow book to produce the house certificate.
Its on the anniversary of entry into Thailand, however some offices will not issue a date beyond when your visa ext runs out, check the slip of paper given on your last 90 day report.
I've just got a certificate of residence from Prachinburi immigration, it took about 20 minutes and. They used my yellow book for my address, and it was free.
