What is required is well documented on here! This was more of a personal experience post.

Thanks but I think I will stick with what works for me 👍

Just a note to highlight a few things that might be useful to anybody visiting CW for the Non O retirement visa extension. I used the 800K method with Bangkok Bank. 1) The document check lady was a young trainee that briefly checked through the my paperwork 2) I arrived one hour early for my appointment but was seen pretty much on my appointment time. The queue numbers were displayed on electronic notice boards and called as well. I have read in other posts that the queue numbers were not called but this was not true on the day I attended. 3) I supplied what I thought was all the relevant paperwork with the exception of the first and last page of my current passbook. This was not a problem since the IO had a photocopier next to her desk and did the copying for me 👍 4) I obtained 12 months worth of statements from my local branch (200THB) starting from 2 months before my last extension and my last 6 months from the CW branch of Bangkok Bank in addition to the standard balance confirmation letter (Toal cost 200THB). There was obviously a little overlap here of transaction postings but better too much than too little I thought. One thing which maybe of interest is that unlike the 6 month statements obtained from the CW branch the 12 month statement from my branch was not officially stamped but is printed on headed Bangkok Bank computer stationary including the sprocket feed holes which branch staff assured me would be OK. As pointed out in previous posts there is a delay in the delivery of the statement since the printing is done in head office, mine was completed in 3 days. The IO lady did want to see my previous passbook to confirm the 800k balance was still in the account for 3 months after the previous extension. I thought that was the purpose of the 12 monthly statements but she wanted to see both. Anyway it all worked out fine and the extension was issued. I guess I should add that this was my own personal experience on a particular day in front of a random IO at CW. I hope it may help.

I know the reporting clock resets upon return to Thailand from a foreign land but does this mean you cannot use the online system for the first 90 day reporting after the return to Thailand i.e you have to go to CW in person?

Wow good job you spotted that one. I assumed that when you present yourself at CW with TM30 etc for the extension that would reset the clock. It seems not.

It should be 7 days AFTER due date but I am sure that was just a slip of the pen (or should that be key these days🤔)

I believe the 90 day report requirement will start from the date of extension not from the date of your previous 90 day report.

Thanks for this. To be honest I guessed it was kept since the IO stamped the TM07 top right hand corner with a stamp and filled in some sort of reference

No just wondering if they keep it where do they keep it and how they are able to easily retrieve it? Do they replace the previous years paperwork with the current years? There is no point in storing it if it will never be looked at again.

Does anybody know what happens to the paperwork that is used to support visa extensions at immigration offices. There is a lot of it and I guess it’s filed away somewhere never to see the light of day again 🤷‍♂️

Great glad it all worked out in the end 👍

Sorry I misread that. How was it resolved in the end?

Well glad that was sorted out for you. Did you have to go through the procedure that DrJack outlined above?

I was not asking if the reason for rejection was reasonable I was just asking if there was an appeals procedure 🤷‍♂️

Well at least there is a procedure. Thanks for that 👍
