Can I use my Social Security income to meet the financial requirements for a retirement visa in Thailand?

Tom *******

@Nongnuch *******

this is incredibly comprehensive and I will copy and paste for future use. One question Khun Nongnuch - if you DO find that agent who can bypass opening a Thai bank account on a 60 day visa free entry… are you then being looked at suspiciously by immigration or am embassy because of taking advantage of this loophole? (Is this a stupid question? 555)

What are the most affordable options for a US citizen planning to move to Thailand by age 40?

Tom *******

My advice respectfully Mr

, and I do not think it has been mentioned yet.. Start learning to speak Thai language. This would be a good project for you to work on while you are chasing this dream. I am 3 years into studying Thai and still have a long way to go. Of course … visit as often as you can while you plan your future. Get a feel for The Kingdom and all it has to offer. Chok dee Krap! (Good luck)
