Just applied for insurance with Pacific Cross. At 65 extensive physical was required and at substantial cost. A portion rebated down the line. Cost included Certificate of Insurance, covid coverage, with 5 million coverage at 65,525 B with 25% discount for 40,000 B deductible. A 3,000,000 B life policy is included in that price. Obviously not cheap to go the O-A method. I can certainly see why many choose entering on a tourist visa and converting in Thailand. Fortunately, the e-visa is straightforward and no need to spend $3000 US on Bangkok attorneys.

Good for you. Enjoy your return.

In reference to my wife, when filling out the Additional Application for Non Immigrant O-A visa form in the areas of Occupation, Monthly Income and Savings, what should be inserted in these three areas? My wife is retired without income and will be supported by my pension, SS, etc. She will be using the 800,000 baht method in her own savings account to meet financial requirements. Thanks in advance for your advice.
