It's not clear (to me) what the OP has done regarding the transfers. At times refers to transfers in the future. Oct 23 to Oct 24. Or does he mean that he has been doing 65k transfers from Oct 22. I'm interested in this as I also wish to change at some point to income method after many years using money in bank method. There is a thread here https://aseannow.com/topic/1250244-retirement-visa-non-o-switch-to-monthly-income-when-renewing/ Read it few times and still not clear. Has posts from ubonjoe who usually makes things very clear. The issue for the OP is that yes his non O is a genuine stamp however his bank book will show he has not been compliant.

For once I disagree. The OP has used agent previously. IMO he needs to exit Thailand and apply for new Non O based on retirement. Either outside of Thailand or use conversion from visa exempt. Will require money in bank method for first extension.

So excellent..you are familiar with options. Why ask. Just to reaffirm. You do not have option for "pick up'" Do it next day. Again silly thread.

Silly thread. You want to visit Luang Krabang . Flights from Bangkok simple. Do your sightseeing and then travel to Vientiane for your visa. Cross bridge and minivan to UT airport.

Transfers from WISE is not your issue. Use the last option for WISE "reason for transfer" think it's long term living expenses. Even if not tagged FTT. Your bank can provide internal transfer from o/s . Not a big deal. So you are asking about extension for application in Oct 2024 where you can show previous 12 months monthly transfers. That will work. The one tainted thing is your bank book. It does not show compliance previously. I suggest new non O application showing 12 month transfers with 12 month statement. Use of agents to avoid financials is a one way street.

No. You don't understand that when dealing with immigration directly without agent for your next extension it is clear that you used an agent. The financials are checked retrospectively. Meaning they look at you bank statements for previous 12 months. Also without embassy letter unless you have already done 12 months of transfers then that is not an option . How many transfers of 65k per month have you done since current extension application. My guess is Zero,?

Flight to Vientiane not cheap. You can fly to Udon Thani and minibus to Nong Khai. From there you have short...ish trip to Vientiane. Udon airport is not long drive to friendship bridge. Straight level road.

Simple question.. Did you have 800k two months prior and 3 months after last extension and not below 400k in other months in your Thai bank account. YOUR money. I'm guessing NO. If that's the case you need to obtain a new Non O retirement. You cannot just leave using an agent and do extension yourself. Do you currently have 800k in your bank account. Yes or No. Simple question.

Exactly. The OP has been using agents. That almost certainly means zero funds in the bank. He cannot do a 12 month extension without using an agent. He needs to exit Thailand and obtain new non O either outside of Thailand or using conversion to obtain non O in Thailand from visa exempt or tourist visa. He stated that his embassy does not provide income letter. So he needs to obtain new non O retirement and use money in bank method for first non O application and subsequent extension.

First up you require an appointment at Vientiane. If approved it's done overnight. Second application does not come into it. You state FLY ...assume you mean fly to Udon Thani?

Seems the OP is on extension using an agent. To switch to doing it himself he would need to have started 12 month transfers 12 months ago. As you are aware immigration check financials retrospectively. IMO he needs to exit Thailand and start over. Obtain new non O either at nearby consulate or by visa exempt entry and do a conversion to non O retirement using TM87. He will need to use money in bank method as his embassy does not provide income letter.

You will need to exit Thailand and reenter Thailand to obtain new non O. That is possible with a border bounce and reenter visa exempt. For the non O application you need to show funds came from abroad. You will need to have 800k in your Thai bank. For the first extension you do not have option for "income method" You would need to use "money in bank method.

What status do you currently have in Thailand Do you plan to apply for non O visa in Thailand? Does you embassy provide income letter? Monthly transfers need to come from abroad.

You present actual bank book

He was meaning "certificate of residence" At CW it costs 200b and is mailed out within 2 weeks. It's used for such things as opening bank account, TDL etc. To obtain one at CW requires you to have made 90 day report.

Friendship bridge . Nong Khai. Depends where you are located in Thailand. If located Bangkok , my route would be fly to Udon Thani and minivan to Nong Khai..

Ridiculous post. Visa forum is not pub forum..

Thinking OP is referring to Jomtien. Only quoted you because some dill gave you sad emoji. The 90 day return date at Jomtien is a rubbish request and never recorded. Your post is accurate.

Strange. Anyway you can apply for address report 14 days prior to due date. At CW they have appointments available for 90 day report. I did one recently. Very helpful io. You could consider making an appointment with whatever proof of address you have. They might even process a TM47 and that would be sufficient for your extension. https://www.immigration.go.th/?page_id=20131

Given your post about your condo purchase not at this time complete. I really cannot give reliable advice. Hopefully @BritTim Can provide more clarity. Is your next 90 day report due prior to annual extension.

The OP has been on annual extensions. Now has changed address. A TM30 is required for change of address. Electric bill won't cut it

Which immigration office? Is your new address same province

So you previously have been on extension based on retirement? Meaning this is not your first extension. Not being rude but no such thing as "Renew Non-O Visa" How did you obtain extensions previously regarding proof of address. Which immigration office?

Prove address for what reason?

OP, This question has been asked by myself and a other poster. You interested in your thread?
