Questions for the Retirement Visa

[Jasper4one]

Hi:

 

Good day to all so, here's my questions my retirement visa will expire on 25th Jan 2018. I know I need to get my income ( AFFIDAVIT ) letter from the U.S. Embassy. I'm going to the Outreach Program in Khonkaen on 8th November. I do not live in Khonkaen but it's closer to me than BKK. What is the validation period of the letter they will accept to renew my Visa? Also is it okay if I wait like 15 to 20 days before I renew it? I do not know the required number of days before it's too late to renew the visa. I'm asking because I will be on a trip to Malaysia in December and will return on or about 11th January. I like to say thank you for your help in replying to my questions.   Thanks a Lot   Jasper

lett from embassy is valid for 6 months

Okay, the letter is good for 6 months. Thanks, but, can I reapply for the visa safely 15 days before it expires? Thanks

Immigration will accept a income affidavit that is up to 6 months old.

You can apply for your extension up to 30 days before or on the date it ends. There is no minimum number of days remaining on your current extension to do the application rule.

Ubonjoe, thank you so much for your prompt response. So, I will go there to renew my visa about 12th January with no worries as I will be away on a trip. Your the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!    Jasper

You do not have a Visa.

You have an Extension of your Permision to stay.

Apply up to 30 days early or 45 days at some offices.
