Which immigration office. What type of extension

You could inquire with one of the Bangkok agents such as ThaiVisaCentre. I doubt if an agent will obtain a COR at CW. Keep in mind that you must have your most recent TM47 receipt.

https://aseannow.com/topic/1328126-residence-certificate-requirements/ https://aseannow.com/topic/1286381-certificate-of-residence-at-cw/ In this last thread ubonjoe posts a link to form that CW uses. https://aseannow.com/topic/1268314-can-i-get-a-certificate-of-residency-at-cw/ Note: appointments for COR not available at CW. However if your TM47 report window is open you can book appointment for that and the same desk will process your COR application. 200b. The io will even photocopy the TM47 receipt.

Never was a requirement for extensions. Unrelated to extensions there were few reports re visa exempt entry at a land border asking about onward travel..

Have a good flight.

OP, here is a random thread. https://aseannow.com/topic/1319982-retirement-extension-jomtien-trip-report/ Don't bother with it apart from OP report. Here is a snip from it. "Then I will also see if I get the form to return in three months to show the 800K still in the bank. For me it varies; Some years I do get it and some years I don't. I never bother to go back anyway, I think it is meant more as a reminder to us than to them" Have read MANY reports of folk ignoring the "return with bank book" in 3 months. I have NEVER read a report where failure to do so resulted in issue with next extension.

The type of visa eg non O vs non O-A sets the requirements for extension of your permission of stay. As you pointed out requirement of insurance. The post you quoted is fully correct. When he exits Thailand on his stated dates the non O is history.

The topic has come up many times and many first hand reports of no record being made or no slip handed out to report back etc.. and no issues of not returning. Just Jomitien rubbish.

The OP has a tourist visa. He will apply for extension at CW. If he had a visa exempt entry he would apply at LakSi The two forms you listed have been around for quite some time. Required for all extensions. Terms and conditions+ acknowledgement of overstay penalties

While not related to COR..... Recently obtained new passport and made trip to CW to transfer stamps etc. Out of the blue, Wham they want my bank book and photocopies all pages from date of current extension. I use money in bank method retirement.. So if anyone going to CW to transfer stamps be forewarned That is free extra from immigration!

You will receive final stamp for sure. Best to maintain the 400k in bank till you receive final stamp.

Ignore report back after 3 months with bank book.

Which immigration office? If you are referring to Jomitien and return to immigration after 3 months to show bank book that is not required.

Thanks for update from OP. Thread closed.

Don't direct your advice/rant to me.. I pushed the OP post as he did not receive reply. Hopefully your info provides good advice for OP. Simple summary to advise OP would suffice

Your previous posts relate to non O retirement and also other visas options. So you currently have a PE visa? When did you obtain the PE visa? Why not ask that company for support advice.

Off topic posts removed. Stick to thread heading.

OP, the letter (eg sample from Mark above) can be hand written. Are we sure HCMC is issuing multiple entries? Haven't seen report for some time. Savannakhet does. https://aseannow.com/topic/1271229-invitation-letter-from-spouse-type-o-visa/

Not area specific. Your immigration office for unknown reason overlooked that requirement. Wife needs to attend. For further extensions not required

Jomitien does not require most recent TM47 however if you have that then include it in your docs.

Good summary. Without the funds seasoned for 2 months may need to accept single entry non O offer
