Change of passport number
Because my Bank insisted on seeing both. SCB in Khon Kaen. It is also necessary to update the Passport number with your telephone company. However, (for AIS) this can ONLY be done by attending their Shop (Khon Kaen Central, 3rd floor). No idea about True/DTAC. KK Immigration do charge for transferring data to New Passport and also insist on seeing both old and new. I just did all of the above in the last 10 days, in Khon Kaen.

Proof of income
You are correct. However, the payment dates are not flexible. If the money was sent to a UK Bank I would be required to pay UK Tax on my total income. Paying me in Thailand the PP becomes Tax Free under the UK QROPS rules. My FA in the UK calculated that having the QROPS paid into a Thai Bank and paying Thai Tax, my Tax liability is about one third of what I would pay the UK Government.

Proof of income
I intend to discuss this matter with the Top Brass at my office. Since the UK stopped the letter it has been a nightmare, because although my annual income well exceeds the required amount, the "Monthly income falls short. This is because my UK Pension is paid monthly, but my Private Pension is paid quarterly. The office tends to ignore "average". My thoughts are that now that I am paying Tax in Thailand, the Thai Revenue Office have verified the annual income. Immigration should (IMHO) respect that. However, I will not hold my breath.

Some tax filing issues
To get this allowance you have to give TRO a Certificate from your insurer, showing the total annual premium. My Certificate does not break down the benefits, it just shows the total premium, and was accepted at my local office.

Thai Tax Laws for Expats: the Practical Implications versus the Realities
I filed my Return on Monday. I was told specifically to keep the papers "safe" because it was quite probable that Immigration would ask for them at some in the future.

Supreme Court Petitioned to Return Thaksin to Jail Amid Allegations
Totally agree. Maybe these Petitions should be accompanied by a 250,000 Bt Deposit. If the Petition fails, the deposit then goes to charity. That "might" stop some of the glory seekers.

Brit expats in Thailand warned of scams targeting bank accounts
I received one of these calls a couple of days ago. He said that I might not need a TIN. I replied "What an amazing coincidence, I am at the Revenue Office as we speak. Would you care to talk to the lady processing my Return?" He hung up.
