I am 66 years old, and working in Thailand for the past 8 years. My wife is here too, - she is a Kiribati Citizen. In May I will likely retire, and seek to obtain an annual extension of stay

based on retirement.

 

My wife is 31 years old. My question is can my wife also get an extension based on MY retirement? In other words can we both stay. We are legally married, and have the notarized marriage certificate. We can also demonstrate the requisite funds and income from pensions.

 

Thanks for any advice.

Yes - your wife can get an extension based solely on being your wife.  She does not have to meet the retirement qualifications.

Thank you Jack Thompson
