Non-O Retirement visa from Chicago US consular based on SS.
OP, your situation is clear. You need to deposit 800k (equivalent) into bank account and obtain a Non O retirement eVisa in the states. When you enter Thailand you will be stamped in for 90 days. In the last 30 days with the funds having been in the bank for min 2 months you can obtain 12 month extension. To change to income method (in the future) you would need to overlap both methods for one year. Then when you can show 12 months of transfees from abroad (65k min per month) then you could change to income method. -

Transport Over 20 Speed Bumps Spark Public Outcry in Ratchaburi Village
Pictures courtesy of Matichon. Residents of Nakhon Chum subdistrict in Ban Pong District, Ratchaburi Province, are calling on local authorities to remove some of the more than 20 closely spaced speed bumps recently installed throughout their village, citing damage to vehicles and potential safety risks, especially at night. The speed bumps were installed as part of a campaign by the Nakhon Chum Subdistrict Administrative Organisation (SAO) to reduce traffic accidents in high-risk areas, including near Wat Mai Nakhon Chum, a busy intersection frequented by worshippers and local shoppers. However, affected villagers say the number and density of the bumps far exceed what is necessary. One resident explained that while the intention to slow traffic is appreciated, the excessive number of bumps has caused damage to vehicles, disrupted daily transport, particularly for the elderly and ill and increased the risk of accidents for those unfamiliar with the route. “It’s not about opposing safety measures,” the resident said. “We just want something reasonable. There needs to be space for cars to pass safely. At night, when it’s hard to see, this setup could cause more accidents.” In response to the growing complaints shared on social media, Mr. Chaiya Iamkham, the SAO’s permanent secretary, clarified that the installation of the speed strips followed community requests for measures to improve road safety. The SAO purchased and installed the strips at key junctions identified as accident-prone, following reports of both traffic incidents and crimes, such as motorbike-based thefts, occurring with high speed escapes. “Statistically, there have been frequent accidents and incidents in that area,” Mr. Chaiya explained. “The goal was to reduce loss of life and property. However, we acknowledge that the number may be excessive. Now that the installation is complete, we will assess the situation, remove some of the strips, and retain them for use in other locations as needed.” Residents have expressed hope that the SAO will act quickly to ease the disruption and restore safer, more practical road conditions for everyone in the area.
