Did you ask for a list of requirements for a retirement extension? That's what you need.  The fact that you are changing is not relevant, because it's just an application for an extension based on a different reason.

 

When switching from marriage to retirement, your wife will also need to be present for this extension, but will not need to be present for future applications. 

 

Most immigration offices require many other forms they will provide to be signed, and some require things like your lease, and other various items.

 

Don't tell them you are changing when you go to ask, as you will just confuse matters.  You want the requirements for a retirement extension. That's it.

OP, you have good advice in post above. 

Not sure what you mean  "guarantee" 

You need a bank letter which is simple letter from bank that you are owner of the account and balance on day of issue. 

You also need band statement showing 800k seasoned in the bank for two months prior to application. 

Assume you are aware of the financial requirements after application. 

Your wife needs to attend for this first extension based on retirement. 

There is no multi entry extension. 

The 12 month extension is 1900b.

In addition you can buy a multi reentry permit 3800b 

There is list of things you require such a TM7 with photo etc.

Yeah. It's just for the initial change. 

Ongoing she won't need to attend. 

Minor point but be aware when you change the 12 months extension starts on date of application. 

As a result some Leave the application to later (closer to current expiry) than when then would normally apply. 

As I stated.. Minor point.

You have outlined some requirements for extension based on marriage. 

The OP is applying for extension based on retirement. 

The requirements have been outlined in the thread.

Actually when you read the Thread Title, it says: "requirements swap marriage extension to retirement"

and Arick responded with requirements for marriage extension..., which are the wrong requirements.

Hence my post: "wrong"

I think you have missed my point.......

 

 

Whilst "wrong" may be an accurate statement of fact, it is arguably a pointless statement without reference to earlier comments giving "correct" information.

Dr. Jack,

maybe it's time to remove the mutual bloating of this thread

[DrJack54]

Further chit chat will be removed.

Chiang Mai immigration like to have photos of yourself and your wife on the toilet, they like to look in your wardrobe and poke into your personal situation as much as they can. Make sure to take at least one spare copy of every document, as when the paperwork "shuffling" begins, and especially if they are interrupted, (as they cannot multi task, in fact they find performing straight forward singular tasks extremely difficult) as by now you should have at least two of your original photocopies missing - it happens every year, the sleight of hand and whoosh your perfect paperwork is no more!

 

A couple of young ladies at CM would put David Nixon to shame in a card trick.

 

Just an observation, but when you fill in the forms at immigration, just remember, spell checker is your friend, not your enemy!

Hypothetical question regarding this change of reason for extension. (I'm not talking about myself)

What if there is a marriage breakup and said applicant jumps on his bike and heads for a Province remote to escape the fury left behind. Does the lady have to be in attendence for such a change of status to be approved, or is it only if the marriage is ongoing?

 

It should be mentioned that if he entered on an OA visa, approved  health insurance must be obtained for retirement.
