Non-Imm 'O' (Marriage) Extension - Seasoning Funds

[DavidS]

When I did the extension in Suan Phlu in 2009, I was asked to sign a form acknowledging that I understood that the 400K would need to be the the bank for 3 months prior to any future application(s) for extension on grounds of marriage.

I reported this in this forum at the time.

Subsequently, I noticed other reports here mentioning 2 months, so when I applied for the extension in late March 2010 at Chaeng Wattana, I asked the officer what the current requirement was, and she said 2 months. Got my wife to re-confirm this in Thai.

I'm due for the next application in March 2011, so would be obliged if someone could confirm what the current application of the regulation is - 2 months or 3 months?

I will be making the application at Chaeng Wattana.

Most/some please seem to want 3 months now for anything except first application so I would make it three myself. The regulation as written says 2 but expect that was a mistake as retirement clearly says 2 and 3.

Thanks Lopburi 3.

Better safe than sorry I suppose, especially with Immigration.
