    Any ideas about needing to use the 800k for *first* extension, before using 65k for subsequent?

    Assuming your embassy does not provide "income letter" (UK,USA,AU) you would need to provide 12 month of 65k+ transfers.

    As noted in earlier posts, some immigration offices will be fine with the monthly transfers being from overseas and and not interested in funds from pension etc.

     

    An io from CW told me she wants to see some proof of pension.

    With that in mind I changed my super funds to "income stream". Meaning set amount every month. 

    However I have decided to use agent moving forward

    Is it to the discretion of the immigration officier ? I can't find any indication or guideline that says I basically cannot do this forever. 

    It's about length of time between visits.

    Your OP seems to indicate stay 30 days visa exempt and bounce out for short period wash and repeat.

    Eventually you will be denied entry.

    Thailand has many visas available for longer stay such as METV 

     

    The question of how many visa exempt is too many is posted on weekly basis.

    Boring

    Is it possible to extend a 1 year extension with further 60 days at local immigration office?

    Yes

    Next will be to get a new Non O visa or convert visa exempt to Non O visa and the to 1 year extension.

    So you can't currently meet the 400k requirement for annual extension.  

     

    Enough from me. Seems you are aware of your options.

    Purpose of thread?

    Will go without agent van. You also did without agent?

    No you have experience with an existing 1 year NON O extension that expires same time?
    No problems?

    I'm on ongoing extensions so no I have never done border run you outline.

    You won't have an issue.

     

    Your OP is correct in that if you exit without reentry permit your current permission of stay is done and dusted.

    Turn around and reenter visa exempt. 

     

    Bit hard to guess your plan (which is your business) 

    Assume that you are aware of 60 day extension to visit wife. 

    What's the plan after visa exempt entry?

    Just to double check my second question. Can I leave and I re enter the country any time before the expiration date of the (re entry permit/extension of stay) expires with no regard to my original 90 day report.

    I'm confused...you stated

    "After obtaining a single re entry permit, ..." 

     

    Have you used that reentry permit? 

    It's a single.

    To exit again you require a new reentry permit 

  6. 90 report resets upon reentry to Thailand. 

    Ignore the reminder.

    Your next tm47 due 90 days from most recent entry.

    You do not require a TM30 if returning to previous address.

    You seem to have obtained a single reentry permit for this recent trip out of Thailand. 

    Of course you require another reentry permit if you want to exit again.

     

    Edit: OP, the first 2 posts explain what's required clearly

    Assuming that your local office is Chaengwattana as stated in your OP, @TylerBKK's 4 March post in the following thread provides a comprehensive list of all relevant requirements in your case:

    That is a comprehensive list.

     

    Note it included TM47 

    I'm not sure how the OP obtained his current extension. 

    Seems he did not provide his own funds.

    The agent obtained the bank account the Non O and the extension.  

    Did he do 90 day reports?

    To which immigration office.

    Where were the stamps issued.

    Thanks Jack,

    Thai bank account no problem.

    But my question was about going out and coming back a lot, especially in the first few months and if I get a multi entry.

    Also about the KR2 / 22 document, considering we got married in the UK

    Here is a link that outlines requirements if marriage registered in Thailand vs overseas.

    Regarding the many trips out I get it now.

    I'm not 100% sure if multi entry marriage is currently available from Saigon.

    It is from Savannahket 

     

    Multi from HCMC discussed in this thread

  9. If you plan to live ongoing in Thailand, personally I would do a single entry Non O based on marriage and subsequent annual extensions. You would also require a multiple reentry permit. 

    You can obtain that in nearby consulates such as Saigon, Savannahket etc.

    You could also just enter Thailand visa exempt and obtain Non O at Thai immigration. 

    Note: Saigon requires an appointment. 

     

    Assume you have a Thai bank account.  

     

    Process outlined in this thread with other links.

    My real issue is will I be able to renew myself in subsequent years. I will have a new passbook by then so hopefully will not be obvious about the original 800,000 issue 🤷‍♂️

    I have had immigration officer look at my bank book one month prior to previous extension.

    Very unusual that your agent is obtaining 12 month extension at CW. 

    Did you meet the financial requirements over the previous 12 months?
