Retirement visa

[zugady]

If Ubonjoe is free....

For a retirement visa what about make a "fix deposit" with 800K for , let's say 24 month???

In this case the 2 month before, 3 month later... we can forget.

I didn't saw any topic about that.

What do you think?

Thank you,

Fixed Deposits are accepted by most Immigration Offices.

Dependent upon the office where you apply for the extension of stay that would be allowed as long as the fixed deposit account allows you to withdraw the money without delay or penalty other than loss of interest.

I am confused.  How can they forget the 2 months before and the 3 months after if you can deposit today, print the paper, get visa tomorrow, withdraw next day and move money out of Thailand, just because account is call fixed deposit that you can access any time?

Why confused. He is suggesting just keeping 800k in a Thai bank and not touching it. Exactly what I and others plan to do. As the op suggests the balance after extension 800 then 400, then 800 before next extension could easy have a slip up. The op reference balance before/after extension is understood.
