    Which immigration office? That should not be required. When you obtain a passport renewal the details of the non O are transferred
  2. DrJack54
    Which office will you be using? BTW in the links posted you will notice TM87. That is part of application for obtaining non O from visa exempt entry
  3. DrJack54
    Not completely clear where you are. If in Thailand you can do a border bounce enter visa exempt and apply for non O at your local immigration office. Yes you could then obtain 60 day extension to visit wife however not required. You can obtain the non O immediately at local Thai immigration office if you have Thai bank account in your name only.
  4. DrJack54
    You have not read the thread link I posted. For money in the bank method to apply for non O based on marriage or retirement only needs to be in Thai bank account in your name only on day of application. That will give you a 90 day stamp. In last 30 days of that permit with funds having been in bank for 2 months you can obtain 12 month extension

    It is possible to enter visa exempt and apply at local immigration office for non O based on marriage and subsequent 12 month extension. Why need extra 60 day extension to visit wife? Process outlined in this thread https://aseannow.com/topic/1315828-visa-exempt-to-90-day-non-o-spouse-visa-conversion-in-thailand/

    Never suggested he could. He is returning to USA. His current permission of stay is gone also the non O obtained from agent. He plan is to reenter Thailand visa exempt and obtain a non O at immigration office with 800k in Thai bank (his own funds). After 2 months seasoning of the 800k he will obtain the subsequent 12 month extension.

    It's unfortunate that surprises can occur. I recently had my stamps transferred to new pp and CW requested photocopies of all pages of bank book and account update. This has never been a requirement. Doesn't Samut Prakan have photocopy stall?

    Earlier I asked ...... "During this current extension did you maintain the financial requirements? That's a yes or no." OP Reply....... "No I did not"
  9. DrJack54
    The OP is very unclear. Confirmed that current extension was agent assisted (didn't meet financial requirements) Perhaps does not realize that an agent can obtain another extension. Mentions is OP mentions 800k in Thai bank. Perhaps aim is to provide the financials and do it all himself. If that's the case he would need start over. Who knows
  10. DrJack54
    That will work. Here is thread that explains the process. Also contains links. Do you have Thai bank account in your name only? https://aseannow.com/topic/1311886-visa-exempt-to-retirement-extension-process-and-cost/
  11. DrJack54
    So your plan is to do border bounce and obtain a visa exempt 30 day stamp. You stated in couple of replies... "I don't want to use minivan." That would have helped in the OP. Fly Bangkok to Udon Thani and short run to friendship bridge.
  12. DrJack54
    You need to be aware of you "enter before date" on your visa. That sets when you need to exit and reenter Thailand to obtain another 60 days
  13. DrJack54
    Also some offices require home visit.

  15. DrJack54
    How....think you mean you switched extension based on retirement to based on marriage.
  16. DrJack54
    You can use funds from that account as long as remain above 800k for two months prior to application for extension.. Don't follow why you require another 800k however yes the funds can be in two different accounts. The financial requirements at outlined earlier in the thread. Where are you obtaining the non O (retirement)
  17. DrJack54
    Not sure what a registered citizen is. You have a passport for a certain country you can obtain a visa for Thailand
  18. DrJack54
    You could consider a single entry non O eVisa obtained in home country + 60 day extension to visit wife = 5 months.
  19. DrJack54
    That's all fine however you will need immigration to transfer visa information etc at some point. You could even do it at same time as next extension or 90 day report etc. I posted link to form for transfer earlier in thread.
  20. DrJack54
    And meet financial requirements far higher hurdle than marriage extension alternative. Immigration officers prefer "based on retirement" as it's less work for them
  21. DrJack54
    You only need to transfer stamps etc if have dealings with immigration. You can postpone the transfer till it's required.
  22. DrJack54
    Which immigration office?
  23. DrJack54
    Something more to your overstay issue. This is incorrect. Perhaps you did not present both passports at airport after travel and given incorrect stamp. No urgency to transfer stamps. Note: visas are not transfered. Notation of information is noted in new pp.
  24. DrJack54
    Not sure about this post. Back to your question. At LakSi there is photocopy joint left side of immigration office. Hand over your passport and tell them you are obtaining 30 day extension. You need to have a TM30. Screenshot from hotel will do.
  25. DrJack54
    That would be crazy. Worst case with delayed/cancelled flight would be small overstay at airport. One day would not even be fined. Longer it's 500b per day and first day will be counted
