Indeed update forum with banks response. I can't see them stamping some printouts you hand over.

FD account is fine. Seems that you may not have opened bank account at this stage? Suggest BBL or Kasikorn good options if you do transfers with wise. Also note that if you plan to use CW immigration that SCB does not have a branch there.

This thread explains detail of 30 day extension CM. https://aseannow.com/topic/1316316-getting-30-day-extension-in-cm-at-the-last-minute/

100% avoid PoiPet. Which border bounce location is down to where you are staying in Thailand. Example if located in Pattaya plenty of minivan border bounce companies. Where will you be staying in Thailand

I can't find the tread, however recall recently a post where bank has changed policy and not issuing what you posted with the 12 transfers anymore. That could just be down to misunderstanding between customer and bank (BBL) OR may have indicated needs to come from head office?

I couldn't find one on the appointment link I posted. I did the transfer of stamps to new pp recently. You can do the transfer at any stage. A word of warning for those using money in bank for extension based on retirement that they now want photocopies of bankbook pages back to current extension and also updated bankbook.

Not sure what "bank letter" you are referring to. Indeed banks can provide "credit advice" statement. Discussed in this attached thread. https://aseannow.com/topic/1304309-proving-65k-monthly-transfers-from-abroad-when-using-wise/ Perhaps post pic of what you are referring to. Many folk post in various threads of code on bank statements not showing code that indicates international transfer and hence need for credit advice.

Free tip: if you ever need a COR (for which you cannot make an appointment) ....if your window is open for 90 report then make an appointment for that and same io same desk will process your COR application.

Next time use this for appointment. https://bangkok.immigration.go.th/en/onlineservice-and-publicguide/

Thanks for report. Helpful. Regarding the docs you provided.... Apart from the usual did you provide TM30 TM47 Also what method are you using for the financials money in bank or income method. What did they request for evidence.

The "letter" from the bank is to confirm you are the owner of the account and current balance. Does not confirm the transfers of monthly minimum 65k. Perhaps you mean credit advice statement from bank to show transfers are international transfers

Just bumping your thread as no reply. I'm guessing that for the reasons you mention eg Muay Thai , Thai Language etc that that an agent might be used to organize the courses. The bottom line is that you need to have the visa issued outside of Thailand. Agents I have chatted with are using Savannakhet.

Doesn't work that way. You request a 12 month bank statement from the bank and they will provide that with a bank stamp on it. Unfortunately BBL require 5 days to do that. The bank does not provide that. The 12 month statement will have all the deposits. You can highlight the monthly transfers of 65k+ (they prefer that is on consistent dates) Assume that your thread title should be "bank statement for extension from non O-A visa.

Assume that you are asking about money in bank 800k for either application for non O OR application for 12 months extension. Non O requires 800k in bank on day of application. For first extension the 800k (min) needs to have been in bank for 2 months. For ongoing extensions require 2 months prior to application and 3 months after application and not below 400k in other months. In the main immigration will accept your bank book. Some offices want 12 month bank statement for 12 month extension. Only the application for non O requires funds shown from abroad. For extensions that is not required

What's the issue. Previously visa exempt entry was 30 days and currently it's 60 days. Your trip is 35 days.

OP, sound advice above regarding just doing two visa exempt entries with 30 day extensions . You can still border bounce same day (no overnight stay) at some places. Bangkok or Pattaya to Cambodia agent mini van is good option. Depending location Nong Khai also. Regarding the Vietnam suggestion that would work however would suggest mini holiday there rather the very quick turnaround. Also that plan would involve onward flight for return to Thailand visa exempt.

Tod will reply at some point. Think he had reports on Facebook group. I needed a COR at CW earlier this year. IO only wanted one thing. TM47 receipt. So it's certainly a recent change.

IO was confused. That would be the case when changing from based on marriage to retirement from a non O. Assume same as OP you changing to based on retirement. The fact is you ended your permission of stay and reenter visa exempt and applied for NEW non O based on retirement then details of wife etc should not be required.

CW is only immigration office that I'm aware of that has required TM47 receipt to obtain a certificate of residence

Yes. Also you have an onward/return ticket within 60 days so all good

CM seem to sometimes request TM30 for extensions. Even 12month variety. Also I note last two extensions at CW a receipt of most recent TM47 receipt was required.
