What! Without a mask ........... Noooooooooooooo!

If Thailand is so disagreeable, you can leave whenever you want.

Well, assume we all didn't wear trousers and ran around butt naked. If we were talking face to face, and I took a piss, your legs would get wet. However, if you'd worn trousers, then your leg would only get partially wet. But if I also wore trousers, only my legs would get wet and your legs would stay dry. Same concept with masks.

Don't apologise or be sorry, you're just being your usual self.

You must brighten up every room you walk out of.

Outdated, irrelevant, still stuck in a timezone. The world has moved forward, try getting out more.

You must be new to Thailand. Thais have worn masks for years due to dust and poor air quality. Same concept as wearing trousers, and I assume you wear trousers.

Op stated his permission of stay ended on 20th, which is a Tuesday. I suggested the day before (Monday) to maximise his additional 7 days POS. Correct, the additional 7 days is granted from the date of application.

It's how you worded it in your previous post. That is misleading. If the extension application was submitted and granted in June, the permission of stay would run into the following June. The financial requirement for that extension however would run from April to March inclusive. If the OP maintained the 800K for 3 months after the extension was granted and 400K for a further 7 months, he could apply for an extension based on Thai spouse provided he still had 400K. He would meet both criteria for the retirement extension he was previously granted and a new application for the reason of Thai spouse.

Correct, but you'll have to pay the 1,900 BHT fee for the application. You can apply the day before.

An 'O' visa grants a stay of 90 days. It is used on entry, but your Immigration status is Non Immigrant. You then apply to extend that 90 day permission of stay for a further 12 months each and every year, for reason of retirement or Thai family. The financial requirements differ dependent on the reason. More information required.

The financial yearly requirement starts 2 months prior to submitting the application, then the following 10 months from when the extension is approved. 800K for 3 months afterwards, then 400K for the next 7 months. 2+3+7=12.

The financial requirement for an extension based on retirement starts 2 months before the date of application, then for 10 months after the extension is approved. The OP didn't state when his shortfall occurred. If it's recent, within 2 months of his next application and not having the required 800K, he could apply based on Thai spouse (400K) whilst still having met the requirement of his existing retirement extension.

My wife was first presented with and asked to complete that affidavit in 2022, and again in 2023. Last year it was presented in a new format from a template on their PC, with all the details included, just required signing.

Is your wife Thai? Apply for extension based on Thai spouse. 400K in the bank for 2 months.
