That was my other suggestion. It's more common than some would imagine that immigration in various situations "accept" you go into overstay to deal with issue as per your current situation. They will still place the overstay stamp in pp, however this would be best option. Good luck

That's crazy. So what's the plan now. All I can think of is a border bounce without reentry permit, enter visa exempt and start over. Clearly you are not married to a Thai. You have another plan? Talk about being screwed over. That's just ridiculous stance from immigration. In hindsight applying earlier would have been best. However that comment not helping now. Damn

Yes I think it's a 30 window so you can look 30 prior to an approx time you wish to obtain extension. CW allows obtaining extension 45 days prior to expiry of current permit. When you make an appointment things have changed slightly. Previously they sent a confirmation email. Now when you make the appointment they give approval with details on phone screen. Take a screenshot and do a print out hard copy to take to immigration.

So you use an FD account. I was not aware of that. It's absolutely ridiculous that a 12 month bank statement would be required. Suggest you return to immigration and argue your point. 1. Statement never previously required and 2. that you are happy to obtain 12 month bank statement for next extension now that policy (at that office) has changed. No wonder some folk use agents.

It does however most of the banks at CW have very short/zero que to teller for deposit. The folk sitting waiting are obtaining bank letter on day of application.. I previously did that, now obtaining 12 month statement and bank letter prior to day of application. CW has appointment option. Recommend that. Link for appointment: https://bangkok.immigration.go.th/en/onlineservice-and-publicguide/

Yes. Same applies to "bank letter". Which immigration office? Apart from 12 month statement and bank letter, I make a 100b deposit on day of application to update account and show activity. Easy at CW as banks on site and open at 8.30am. Tip for anyone using that office... Even though most banks can do 12 month statement on the spot, obtain it prior to day of application. Kasikorn for example was full at 8.30 last Tuesday. For the deposit teller there was zero que

Happy for someone to correct me on this ....however my understanding is that immigration will want to see the bank statement with bank stamp and tellers signature. That's what I provided (Kasikorn Bank) at CW two days ago for annual extension. BBL statement online discussed in few previous threads https://aseannow.com/topic/1258621-bangkok-bank-online-12-month-bank-statement/

Personally I wouldn't go for SCB. Yes they have a good FD account but for anyone dealing with CW immigration SCB closed their branch there. Kasikorn is one of 3 banks that does not have small limit on WISE transfers and can do 12 month bank statement on the spot.

Unfortunately BBL (Bangkok Bank) does not/cannot do 12 month bank bank statement on the spot.

You didn't even mention office by name. There are ~75 immigration offices. It's important to be aware of ones own office requirements. Even then they can change as was my experience with CW last couple of years.

Maneerat charge 100b

Your wife can piggyback on your extension based on retirement. She needs to enter Thailand with a non O. This thread has advice posted by ubonjoe. Another thread here https://aseannow.com/topic/1306327-dependenttrailing-spouse-visa-questions/

Yes attend CW prior to Nov 20. You won't be able to make an appointment now. In future I suggest an appointment highly recommend (I did 90 report CW this week and very glad I made appointment) Here is link https://bangkok.immigration.go.th/en/onlineservice-and-publicguide/ Edit: OP, for next report after the one you asked about, if you don't exit Thailand again prior to obtaining next extension then you could do both on same visit. You could make appointment for the extension followed by appointment for TM47. I just did same the week.

For the first extension use the 400k in bank seasoned for 2 months. Start the monthly transfers of 40k so when you apply for your next extension you can show 12 monthly transfers as no embassy income letter available for UK pp holders The advice to keep the 60 day up your sleeve is good advice from @steve187 however you need to have 15+ days remaining on your visa exempt stamp when you apply for the non O. Another option would be to apply for the 30 day extension to visa exempt entry. All depends on timing of marriage.. Good luck

Photocopies of bankbook pages covering say 3 months prior to application for extension. Immigration checking to see if the 800k has been in the account for min 2 months. You could opt to also obtain 3 month bank statement (200b) I obtained 12 month extension on 5th Nov. On the 4th I went to my local bank and obtained 1. 12 month bank statements 2. The "bank letter" confirming my ownership of account and balance. On day of application I also made a 100b deposit into account to update and show activity. Which immigration office?

Has worked for me. I use mail option as I travel abroad often.

Points 1,2,3 irrelevant. Your post started with sentence .... " The system works if you use it correctly." That is incorrect. There are numerous posts in this forum from folk (including Me) that have done what you outlined in your post and have had online report rejected.

Here is link to folk discussing that https://asq.in.th/question/do-they-still-issue-same-day-dtv-visas-in-taipei

I can assure you that in many cases it's not due to incorrect submission of the online report. BTW: which immigration office?

That will work. After marriage you can apply for 60 day extension based on "visit Thai wife" if you need to buy time. For the non O marriage you require 400k in Thai bank account in your name only on day of application. Which immigration office?

So tired of these posts. Great news it works for you and many others. I can assure you it is fractured for many and it's not down to incorrect filing in of the fields. I have (like many) been rejected even using auto fill after previous successful report.

It does not. Far from it. There are numerous posts on AseanNow regarding rejection of online report. Including the list of "conditions" you posted. I have 4 rejections from online (CW) despite successful online reporting in the past and as result have done in person. It's fine till online falls out of love with you.
