Recently arrived (3 Feb 13) with a Non-Imm O Visa good for 90 day stay. After 60 days, I will apply for an extension of stay for retirement purposes. I will be using a Proof of Income Letter from the U.S. Embassy to meet the monitary requirement.

I understand the U.S. Embassy Consular Outreach will be here in Pattaya 21 Feb. Anybody know the location and times?

If I obtain my Proof of Income Letter at that time, will the local immigration office in Jomtiem accept a letter that is approximately 40 days old?

Thanks,

Bob

It seems to be scheduled for Friday, March 1, 2013 Pattaya currently but no details yet available. You can find schedule and when details available they will be posted here:

Acceptance within a few months should not be a problem AFAIK.

Thanks.

If going for the reirement extension dont forget to get your re-entry permit at the same time. Save a lot of hassle if you have to leave for some reason.
