800k Not In the Bank Method
DrJack54 replied to Forever Young's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
May sound like overkill, however I would also well in advance consider opening a new bank account. Fresh slate so to speak. Be aware that start over at jomtien from visa exempt entry may have issues. -
800k Not In the Bank Method
DrJack54 replied to Forever Young's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
You were asked simple question re when did you go below the 800k My guess is in the 3 month period after extension granted? When you start over there is no 90 day extension. You would exit Thailand and either obtain new Non O in nearby country or simply border bounce and obtain new Non O in Thailand from visa exempt entry. ie " Start over" Or you could use an agent but note that would be ongoing -
Breaking down the 90-day report rule
DrJack54 replied to Issa Compass's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
After trip abroad and return to Thailand your first 90 report needs to be in person. Some reports of via mail being accepted. Depends on immigration office. BTW: the link to video is not working. You may want check that -
Yes.

800k Not In the Bank Method

90 day reporting does not require proof of financials. Which immigration office. How long after obtaining extension did you drop below 800k. When does current extension expire. -
800k Not In the Bank Method
DrJack54 replied to Forever Young's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
The requirements are clear. 800k in bank 2 months prior and three months post application. Not below 400k in other months. Immigration very inflexible on this. You are either in compliance or not.- 122 replies

Border runs to Cambodia temporarily suspended
DrJack54 replied to zekelin's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
With extensive stay and previous ED visa you would require safe entry services. Recent thread on this a couple refused entry flying from Phu Quoc into BKK after brief trip to Vietnam. Refused entry. Returned using agent assistance no problem. Note the cost due to refused entry + ED visa approx 8k -
Immigration problems with DTV?
DrJack54 replied to ChristianPFC's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
So what's your question or you are just venting? DTV is an option however you indicate not going to obtain one. DTV is obtained outside of Thailand. Agents can assist however not cheap -
Future Transfer of Visa to New Passport
DrJack54 replied to Acharn's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Indeed, stamps etc must be transferred prior to next extension. Some folk leave it to when they have business at immigration. Folk note to update you details with your bank. BTW: There is no fee. They fleeced you. -
Future Transfer of Visa to New Passport
DrJack54 replied to Acharn's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
That's strange. Your extension should have been given with "until date" Same as expiry of pp. May 10. In any event not sure of what you are asking. When you obtain new pp the old one is cancelled however valid visas, extension, reentry permit etc remain valid. You attend immigration to have visa information and relevant stamps transferred to new pp. BTW: Renew pp this year some folk end up in a tangle leaving it late. Saves little money to run the tank to empty. Which immigration office? -
E-Visa and Departure Switch-Up
DrJack54 replied to Zenkman's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Yes. This is not related to your plans however some folk obtain eg an eVisa for Thailand then ask if they can enter Thailand visa exempt and "save" the eVisa for later entry. I would not do that. -
E-Visa and Departure Switch-Up
DrJack54 replied to Zenkman's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
What you outline is fine. By way of example. Being Oz I need eVisa for Vietnam. I sometimes fly to Oz from Bangkok and return with a leg to Saigon (stay a week) then fly to Bangkok. Generally obtain the eVisa for Vietnam while I'm in Thailand. Prior to trip to Oz. After trip to Oz enter Vietnam with eVisa. No issue. -
Non Imm O-A Recent Experience Please
DrJack54 replied to gk10012001's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Has nothing much to do with anything. In fact my joint AU we have superannuation funds as our "retirement". Frankly better returns and total investment amount that you outlined. News flash: useless to satisfy Non O financial requirements. The folk that have zero interest in meeting the financial requirements due to opportunity cost (valid stance) Have the option of using an agent to obtain a Non O from visa exempt entry+ subsequent 12 month extension. -
People can change location and hence need to do extension at another office. This bit is for others to be aware of.... If you obtain your Non O inside Thailand at eg CW, then be aware that for first extension you need to apply at same office. After that you can change location and hence office you deal with.
-
With both TM30 (that is also now used for change of address) + TM47 made with CW then no reason why you cannot obtain your annual extension at CW. A lease would be a bonus and you already indicated that you did not use agent for extension and can show financial compliance to the requirements. Suggest for the next extension at CW you obtain a 12 month bank statement. Is your Thai bank account now Bangkok or Chonburi.

Retirement visa and new passport
DrJack54 replied to twozeds's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
In fact it's Jomtien that was pretty much only office that was requiring people to return to immigration with their bank book after extension retirement to check compliance. Not that it was ever properly enforced. Just another joke from rogue immigration office. -
Insurance is not required for a Non O based on retirement or marriage. Nor required for annual extensions. I realize you are focused on the monthly transfers however you have much bigger issues... Namely that you have been using an agent. Some discussion in this attached thread.... Also here... https://aseannow.com/topic/1332079-from-using-an-agent-to-self-renewal-of-visa/

Border runs to Cambodia temporarily suspended
DrJack54 replied to zekelin's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Yep. Different situation. Most doing border bounce are looking for another 60 visa exempt stamp. Not so simple for them to fly out and back. Also would need onward flight. You not so.
