And I answered. You can apply for any extension and it's "until date" will be same as pp expiry date. Also if you subsequently obtain new pp that permission of stay will not be altered. Life time ago I believe that it was. Not now
-
A permission of stay is only given to pp expiry. Provide more details of your situation for more detailed advice. Are you currently in Thailand. What type of extension are you asking about etc
-
If you enter Thailand with a single entry non O you will be given a 90 day stamp. In the last 30 days of that permission of stay you would apply for 12 month extension. On the date you apply for the extension the 800k needs to have been in bank account for 2 months. Do you have a Thai bank account in your name only

Change from Visa Exempt to Non-O
DrJack54 replied to Moti24's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
The only reason you're in a bad situation is due to rogue 2 month rule from Jomtien immigration. I posted above same time as your post. Given you have had ongoing extensions at that office you could ask them. Re Agent. You could use your own funds and ask agent to step around the 2 month issue if possible. -
Change from Visa Exempt to Non-O
DrJack54 replied to Moti24's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Still think a visit is worthwhile. The OP has had continuous extensions based on retirement and immigration may overlook the (rogue) 2 month requirement. As Pattaya City expats point out in this link. The 2 months is Jomtien specific. https://pcec.club/Applying-for-Non-Immigrant-O-Retirement/ -
Change from Visa Exempt to Non-O
DrJack54 replied to Moti24's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
No offense but that was not clear from the start. Why mention proof of marriage. I suggest you visit Jomtien and ask if 800k needs to be seasoned for 2 months to obtain non o. If answer is yes I suggest you obtain 30 day extension plus 60 day extension in that order. -

Change from Visa Exempt to Non-O
DrJack54 replied to Moti24's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I didn't realize that you had the required time up your sleeve so that not a problem. The Non O provides a 90 day stamp and that's plenty to season funds for 2 months for the 12 month extension. If Jomtien plays games and wants the funds in account for 2 months for the Non O application, you could obtain the 60 day extension. Here is old thread re 60 day extension but still applies.

https://aseannow.com/topic/1315828-visa-exempt-to-90-day-non-o-spouse-visa-conversion-in-thailand/ Thinking you have couple of issues. You should apply for non O with 15+ days remaining on your permission of stay. If required you can obtain 30 day extension or a 60 day extension to visit wife. Has funds been in bank for 2 months. True the rule is funds in account day of application However earlier this year Jomtien was insisting on 2 months seasoning Same thread currently running here https://aseannow.com/topic/1325238-procedures-for-non-imm-o-and-one-year-retirement-extension-from-a-visa-excempt-30-day-entry/ -
Provided the funds (800k) have been in the account for 2 months you should be fine at Jomtien immigration. Earlier this year they were insisting the 800k had to be in account for 2 months. This made it impossible for folk with visa exempt entry to obtain non O The actual rule is 800k in account on day of application. No seasoning required

Retirement 800k rules
DrJack54 replied to mja1906's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
That's incorrect. A non O based on retirement or marriage can be obtained at Thai immigration from a visa exempt or tourist visa entry. For tourist visa entry you use form TM86 and visa exempt entry TM87.. Here is forms requured. https://www.immigration.go.th/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/9.FOR-RETIREMENT-PURPOSES-50-YEARS-OLD-NON-O.pdf
