Give Stan a break - he leads a sad little life, and the only pleasure he has is laughing at other people's misfortunes.

Only kidding Stan - I'm sure you lead a busy and wholsesome life.

I don't appreciate your form of kidding,nor do I see you reason for it.It is obvious ,you have no understanding of me at all

I went to Nong Khai immigration this morning to hear from the horse's mouth,whether or not Nong Khai will "grandfather" married to a Thai extention applications for those who had an extention before 1/10/2006.

"For my next extention,can i still use 400,000 Baht in the bank to apply?"

"Yes you can"

"So money in the bank is fine?"

"Yes,put money in early three months"

One possible problem I see is; when you need to extend, you get someone else, and they say "No, you need 40k income" TIT

I guess you then open another bank account and transfer 40k each month

you beat me to it, yes, it all depends who, on what day and what mood they are in. last trip required a couple return visits just for that reason.

but nong khai immigrations is the best in the world, just in case you are reading. no grudges please as i'll be back.

Thanks for this info, it is exactly what I've been looking for.
Up to my last extn renewal and over the past 2 years I had just left the funds in an account untouched and was told I should be seen to be using them?? So this year I did, in one lump sum where I bought a parcel of land. - Better take proof of this to them next time as I believe they are looking for this type of lump sum removal transaction as a sign you are doing something untoward.
