Incorrect.

It would be OK under the current rules.

I'm assuming it wouldn't be with the new order because of the 400K rules for the full income method and combo method is a type of income method. 

I asked at Chaeng Wattana and they told me it was not allowed. At least 50% had to be income

If the Combo method ends up with no requirement to keep funds in the bank, it opens the door to do 799k deposit and 1k income. 

you where not allowed to do that before so it would not be allowed with the new rules either

I dont think anyone can give you a definitive answer at this stage, how the new system will work is yet to be clarified. Combo method will be a double wammy as income will be using bank statements instead of embassy letters, and deposits minimum balance yet to be defined.

My embassy do income letter for me

1. Can I still do a retirement extension with the combo method? With 600k in pension and 200k in my bank account? If so are my money locked down in my account?

2. How do immigration check that the money is in the account after 90 days, or later?

Is the combination method still available? So I can have 500k in pension and 300k in the bank?

Does people with permanent residency and blue book have to report their adress when they come back to thailand from abroad?

Immigration cannot do anything with the database that the online reporting site accesses. The database only has info for your last entry to the country.

So the only way to fix it is a trip to Laos then ????

From past experience the 90 days online reporting won't work if you get a new passport while in the country because of the passport number mismatch.

That's why I went to Chaeng Wattana and they told me that they connected my new passport number with my old departure card number

When you get a new passport at your embassy in Bangkok, is there any way to do 90 day reporting online without first leaving the country? I went to my immigration office in Bangkok and the told me that they connected my new passport with my departure card so I should be able to do it online. But it's not working. I have done it online a couple of years before I got my new passport

When people pay 2500 or more for their extensions of the ED visa in language schools, is it the immigration that overcharge them? Is not all extensions 1900 baht?

What days are the Immigration offices closed at Christmas & New Year??

Can you get a document translated and certified in one day at ministry of foreign affairs ? Or do you have to wait a few days before getting it back?

Is the 90 day site down today ???

The immigration in Bangkok. My friend like to know for Pattaya/Jomtien

Some people say 6 months and others 3 months? So how old can my income letter be when I apply for my retirement extension at immigration?

Is the Immigration in Bangkok open on Monday-Tuesday next week?

Ok and thank you

Several months ago. It has been discussed on here.

Savannakhet will do one but if using money in the bank you need proof you are retired. 

So I don't need the Medical certificate and criminal background check in Savannakhet then? Can't I use my Income letter there? Must it be money in the bank?

When did Vientiane change their requirements to get a Non O retirement single entry visa? Today you must have a Medical Certificate and a Criminal background check from the police

The letter should be free. I have never heard of an embassy charging for it. 

At the Swedish Embassy in Bangkok the letter is free if you get a new passport at the embassy. But the people who get a new passport in Sweden and then return here have to pay for the letter. You can't get it in Sweden. And people make a new passport when they go home because it cost 4 times as much at the Embassy

It was not the Samui office that told him it doesn't work. He wrote a mail to Thailand Elite and they told him in their reply

Ok and thank you

So if he had the Bangkok, Chiang Mai or Pattaya office he could do the online report with Thailand Elite?

It was the Samui office. And I'm not sure when he did it. But the online reporting was working when he did it

He already went to the office and did it in person. But like to know the answer for the next report.
