  1. You make a good point.. Even agents are advertising DTV for a price.. Granted it requires trip outside of Thailand. My thinking PE visa dead in the water unless huge price reduction. Trim off the fringe benefits would help eg golf
  2. You can take them out. Have never understood why they staple them into pp in first place.
  3. 2. You don't need to show flight out of Thailand for extension. 3. TM30 may be asked for in addition to standard pp pages and TM7 + photo + 1900b
  4. Nothing has changed regarding reentry permit. You can see reentry permit desk just past passport control. On one of occasion I had solid que however they processed super fast. For 200b service fee they will do the TM8+ photo etc. Multi is 3800 Single is 1000 Plus service fee if you opt for that. By far best option over obtaining at CW Re immigration ques I have had two trips from DMK in August and was very light traffic. Re exiting and forgetting to obtain reentry permit in my experience over the years the immigration officer has always reminded me. Not that I needed it. Pretty stupid thing to do.
  5. Couple of off topic posts regarding real estate purchased removed. Topic is about WISE transfers
  6. Here is thread regarding first 90 day report so in my first post add copy of last TM47 receipt. It's CW but covers most offices. Also what you will find is that immigration officer will just take one or two items that I listed. https://aseannow.com/topic/1297166-90-day-report/
  7. Online, via mail or in person
  8. My reason for changing to income method is that not married to long term Thai partner and want her to have no issue getting access to the 800k. With income method I have 120k transfered every month from my Oz bank and WISE transfer to my Thai Bank. As soon as it hits gets transfered into her account. Regarding reason for currently doing both methods is that since my mob AU does not provide income letter from embassy I need to show 12 monthly transfers at my next extension and I also need to adhere to financial requirements for current extension using money in bank method. Hence the overlap
  9. Why changing or why covering both methods
  10. That's why I asked. HH not so easy for a border bounce. My pick would be few days in Saigon. From a Bangkok airport. On return visa exempt consider options to cover any request from airline at departure for onward flight.
  11. I had "pending" online report (CW) for 2 weeks and went past my due date and into 7 day in person window. As a result did the report in person 5 days into Grace Period. If you skip it and eventually have rejected notice you most likely fined 2k
  12. Seems that you did not do the monthly transfers from Aug 24 (your current extension) I would have done it differently. Continued the transfers and 2 months prior to Aug 25 have 800k in Thailand bank account also continued the transfers up till application for next extension. Currently I'm doing the reverse to yourself and doing both methods simultaneously. Satisfying money in bank and will show 12 transfers at my next extension.
  13. No need to ask immigration office. The only "income letter" from you embassy would assist with income method. Nothing provided to assist with "money in bank method" As mentioned UK, USA, AU do not provide income letter along with possibly some other embassies.
  14. OP, out of interest for others what was the actual plan for exit point to kill off the non O-A. Land border or .....
  15. You should look into more. It was the Thai side that wanted the embassies to "verify" the incomes. That's impossible. I think USA uses the word affidavit, Oz refer to it as "statutory declaration " ....turns out that can only be used in Australia. For example sale of real estate and embassy here can "verify " signature etc on legal docs.
  16. Much of that is scaremongering. IF that was to eventuate then most likely other options would be available. In recent time LTV, DTV etc. Make the switch to non O and chill. Your financials are in place. Bank account etc. Good move.
  17. That is an issue for many. Good you have excellent alternative. Clearly you are better off with a non O with the process you outlined in OP.
  18. Are you obtaining extensions from non O-A based on retirement or marriage. Retirement requires insurance Marriage no insurance requirement
  19. Guess that's up to him. He might have better options for insurance or even self insure.
  20. I have always been aware that Phuket immigration has not required insurance for extensions based on retirement where the non O-A was issued prior to certain year. The post I replied to from @chiang mai I took on face value as he stated that has never needed to obtain insurance from his long ago non O-A. As I have stated many times. ...post assistance to the forum or avoid posting
  21. Surely they would accept 12 monthly 65k+ transfers shown by 12 month bank statement.
  22. There are two methods to satisfy financial requirements for extensions from a non O based on retirement and marriage. One is "funds in bank method" The other is "income method" Income method can be used both with embassy letter and without.. The only issue for folk without embassy letter you need to show 12 months of transfers already in bank account to do extension based on retirement (or marriage) UK, USA, AU citizens use income method. This is discussed often. In fact I'm currently changing from funds in bank to income.. In November I will show immigration that I BOTH satisfied money in bank method and ALSO 12 monthly transfers. Ongoing will be using income method. Meaning to maintain funds in Thai bank account. My reason (off topic) is to have zero funds tied up in Thailand to avoid providing WILL to make things easy for long term partner.
  23. That is because the funds had been in the account for some time which will also be the case for OP
