Fiskebolle Posted Wednesday at 07:10 AM Posted Wednesday at 07:10 AM Dear Aseannow members, Here's another one... I was wondering what the requirements are in case one would like to start application process for permanent residence (PR), EITHER BASED ON; 1. INVESTMENT (would purchase of government bonds or a condo or property leasehold of 30 years qualify and if so how much min required)? 2. RETIREMENT (would 3 extensions of stay based on retirement from non-O qualify? If so, will I still need to show min income or x amount of taxes paid)? Obviously, this all given that you have held at least 3 annual subsequent extension of stay from Non-O. Can anyone also shine it's light if an extension of stay (based on retirement) can qualify. FYI, I'm retired from working in Thailand and am not married to a Thai citizen either. Only serious reactions please. Thanks again and best regards, FB

DrJack54 Posted Wednesday at 11:56 AM Posted Wednesday at 11:56 AM There are few guys on AseanNow that have Permanent Resident status. Also some that have Thai citizenship. You haven't had replies. Hopefully someone can post first hand experience.
Popular Post bigt3116 Posted Wednesday at 11:05 PM Popular Post Posted Wednesday at 11:05 PM Easiest answer and to save you reading a 165 page long thread is; Nope. neither investment nor retirement extensions qualify you for PR Your only option is to go back to work for many many years and apply (3 for the application and then while it is processed). 1 1 1
