Retirement visa using the monthly income

[kingstonkid]

Hi I went to a session tnight and got some mixed information.  I am hoping there is someone here that has done this already.

 

I am a monthly income person who has been transferring in 68K+ at least every month to Kasikorn Bank.

 

It was my understanding that I could do this and get a letter from KBANK for immigration I realize I also need my bank book and everything.

 

My confusion comes from attending this seminar and being told that there was no way to do a monthly unless the Embassy did the letter.

 

There were a few other things that made me go MMMMM, but my main worry is the monthly letter.  

 

Can anyone help me out? I have already gone to the expert Dr. Jack, but he suggested someone here may have done it and find out.

 

If not, then I am left looking to move out of the country because if they will not take the monthly for retirement, I doubt they would accept it for marriage.

Whoever told you that was, unfortunately, talking out of their derriere. What KBANK can give you is a letter in the Thai language which, in essence, confirms that you hold an account with them. What you'll also need from them for IMM purposes is a 12-month statement which they should be able to issue on the spot.

 

It is the case that a number of embassies do issue letters or affidavits confirming monthly income, which IMM will accept instead of bank letters & statements. However the American, Australian, British, Canadian and Norwegian embassies no longer issue the necessary letters or affidavits, leaving their nationals with no option other than to go down the bank account confirmation letter and 12-month statement route, based on monthly transfers of at least 65k each for an annual retirement extension.
