So you exited Thailand and reentered with a 90 day stamp.

OK, thanks, just that something tells me, though I could be wrong, the 60 extension date was set at the day I went to immigration, not from the day my permission to stay ended. Can you tell me which.  ?  

The extension is added to your current permission of stay.

Sorry if a bit off topic, if a Non-O permission to stay is coming to an end, and I want to extend it for the 60 days, can that be done at any time, even on the last day...?

You are referring to 60 day extension to visit wife.

That can be done anytime prior to expiry of current permit..

As usual unless inconvenient best to apply with few days early

And be aware that it takes about a month to be approved, so you need to file the paperwork at CW a month before your current visa expires

No.

You need 15+ days remaining on permission of stay to apply for a Non O.

The OP is asking about applying for 12 months extension.

The 30 days you refer to is under consideration period. 

He can apply anytime prior to expiry of his current permission of stay

Many thanks. 

 

So for 12 month extension the FD account doesn't have to show the funds coming from overseas?

No.

In any event you can obtain credit advice that the funds into savings came from abroad.

Same bank for the 2 accounts I assume

Thanks for detailed report.

Will be useful to many..

Transfer the 800k prior to applying for the non O into savings account.

After you obtain the non O, transfer funds from the savings account into the FD account.

60 days+ later apply for 12 month extension..

That said it’s true that some extensions, for instance for reason of employment or education, do need to be officially cancelled by immigration before leaving the country.

That is correct however that's not your situation.

I'm not all that familiar with BOI so hopefully others can advise you.

I did this last year and Jomtien IO, said I required a new re entry permit, even if I was to return before my extension expired. The reason given was that my under consideration period date, was after my extension date.

There is 2 older threads that agree with your post.

Won't post links.

Best advice to OP is to attend immigration for horses mouth advice.

Ideally a school where attendance is not mandatory so I don't have to go when hungover... 

Post a serious thread.

Clearly the Ed visa is just a means to stay in Thailand.

There are better options.

You could obtain a METV giving 9 month stay and learn Spanish privately, perhaps online.

Damn, today I saw that the fellow just reported that 400k does NOT have to be seasoned.

Indeed. 

The report you refer to seems 100% clear.

Let's hope it wasn't just one io using old requirements at Savannakhet.

Another report will be valuable..

And they have wrong info on them just like mentioned in the other thread 3 days ago. I

Valid point. 

The information in thread not reliable. 

Thread closed. 

OP, if you have not previously obtained 60 day extension to visit wife you could push your application for annual extension.

very curious to know, since there are 2 types of extensions, do the restrictions on working apply to both types of extensions?

Work is only prohibited for those on extensions based on retirement. 

Your earlier posts re extensions based on retirement are confusing the thread. 

Retirement and marriage have very different financial requirements.

I had a bank letter showing a balance of over 400,000 baht which I had deposited 2 weeks before and there was no mention of seasoning.

Thanks for detailed report.

So the 400k not seasoned for 2 months.

Good news. Well done. 

Yep.

Take a right turn just prior to building B.

I parked in undercover car parking rear entry to building B.

Crowded yes but few spots available. I arrived approx 10am

Off topic however bit of a heads up.

I also renewed pp not long ago and went to CW to transfer Stamps and visa info.

Immigration sprung on me a requirement to provide photocopies of bank book and make a transaction. (Funds in bank method) 

This previously was never required.

Not happy. 

OP, what occurred for you is normal.
