Latest information on extending an "o" via

[roger101]

I'm due to renew my  'O' visa next month whats the latest requirements?

[hotandsticky]

You don't renew visas.

 

If you really have an O visa you need to apply for a new one.

 

 

If, as is more likely, you have an extension of stay you will need to provide more information:-

 

Basis of extension ie retirement/marriage. Money in the bank or income method.

 

Immigration office used.

@roger101 as, pointed out above. 

Extension of stay based on what. 

Meaning... Marriage, Retirement etc? 

Money in bank or income method? 

Which immigration office? 

[Liquorice]

An 'O' visa grants a stay of 90 days.
It is used on entry, but your Immigration status is Non Immigrant.

You then apply to extend that 90 day permission of stay for a further 12 months each and every year, for reason of retirement or Thai family.
The financial requirements differ dependent on the reason.

 

More information required.

If I posted twice I apologize, getting absent-minded.

PS I know it's an extension I've been doing it for nearly 20yuears.

Yet you still have not read the replies and provided the information for advice. 

From my first post.... 

"Extension of stay based on what. 

 

Meaning... Marriage, Retirement etc? 

 

Money in bank or income method? 

 

Which immigration office?" 

 

No information = No helpful advice. 

 

Here is how I could start a similar question (thread) 

"Soon I will apply for 12 month extension based on retirement at CW using money in bank method. Could someone advice on current requirements"

Location Pattaya

 Type Retirement

Seems you are UK. Means no income letter from embassy.

Here is thread Jomtien specific.

You posted ..." I know it's an extension I've been doing it for nearly 20 years"

 

So exactly what are your concerns. 

There have been no changes..

Couple of overstay acknowledgement forms that are not new and provided at doc check for signature.

The point was, I'm getting old, so I keep a list of things to do and how. As I said, I made a mistake and lost it.

My memory isn't as reliable any more. So, thank you for posting that link. I want to ensure I don't have to do too many trips to immigration or the bank.

Hope this isn't rude.

You live in Pattaya. 

Fortunately Pattaya has very helpful and cheap agents.

Suggest you take pressure off yourself and consider that option.

Can be on two levels. 

Maintain the financial requirements which involves hand holding or next level they do the works.

Plenty of good agents in Pattaya

If you require a list of documents to submit as a reminder, send me a PM.
