Hey Everyone just came back from CW went there to renew my Retirement Visa. Two years ago I had a problem with my Retirement Visa. I am from America and have been here 16 years now. This happened after the US embassy stopped with the notarized letter for income. I had opened an account at Bangkok Bank for the monthly transfers. The problem was I also listed my wife on the account that was a big no go for immigration. They gave me 7 days to get out of the country. I ended up doing a border run to Myanmar so I got a Visa on arrival. I extended for 60 more days and then I had to use a agent. I got a Non-O for 18,000 baht which gave me 90 days then I got my Retirement Visa for 14,000 baht for a 1 year Visa. In the mean time I had opened a new single name account and started my deposits. Then last year I decided to go ahead and use an agent and pay the 14,000 baht. I really did not want to go to CW because of Covid. Now my Retirement Visa was due to expire May 17,2022 so I went to Bangkok Bank and got a 1 year statement for 300 baht takes 5 days for a full 1 year printout. Also got the letter stating my account info and balance. The last year I have been doing my transfers around 100,000 baht a month. So off I go to CW to renew my Visa. When the agent renewed my Visa they did it up north in Issan and another area up north. Now I have a valid Retirement Visa along with my recently updated 90 day report. The Immigration officer took one look at my Passport and threw it back at me told me to go back to agent that my Visa was dirty because of the Northern Immigration Stamps end of discussion. I said I have all my bank reports and transfers so what is the problem?? The Immigration officer begins to talk to my Thai Wife and she is pleading for help please. The Officer now shows my wife her calculator with 12,000 baht on it up to us if we want them to clean up my Visa. Dirty Visa no good clean Visa good. What could I have done at that moment??? Well spoiler alert I paid the 12,000 baht plus 500 baht change of address. Let the comments begin Thank you in Advance.
