Permission To Stay Based On Marriage Renewal - Financial Requirement?

[julot]

My permission of stay based on thai marriage will expire end of february 2011 (first extension).

I understand that I will need to renew it 30 days before it expires, and bring the same documents as for my first extension.

However, I was wondering if instead of having to transfer the necessary 400K from abroad two months before I apply, I could use my monthly income (working now in thailand) to fulfill the financial requirements.

And if so, what kind of documents do I need to bring? (payslip, contract...?)

thanks!

Usually receipts of Income Tax Payments.

And extension should normally be during the last 30 days - it does not have to be at the 30 day remaining mark.

For second extension you will have to have the money in bank three months prior.

With income method you must provide tax return receipts for 40.000 / month.

P.N.D 91 = Tax return for last year.

P.N.D 1 = Withholding income tax return (for the last three months.)

Since my first extension was approved (feb 2010), I only started working on October 1st.

Just before that, I worked under a non-b visa from jan 2009 to feb 2010.

Is that gonna be a problem? You mentioned to bring the tax return from last year so does it mean they take into consideration only the past income?

You should discuss this with your immigrations officer.

This what I had to produce before I went on the bank option.

Are we in a time warp or do you mean Feb 2010?

yep, my mistake. thanks for pointing out! changed it...

Just to add.

First time I went for the extension I only made 30.000 baht/month the previous year.

I had to pay back taxes for the previous year to come up to 40.000 baht/month.
