A posting on thaivisa.com raises the question whether or not Jomtien Thai Immigration has changed the rule regarding the Income Affidavit used to get the Extension of Stay for added one year... ???

It's been accepted that the Notarized Affidavit of Income was accepted if within six months of applying for your Extension of Stay.

If anyone has recently used the Affidavit of Income method at Jomtien Immigration please post your experience .

FYI... The US Embassy in Bangkok will have its ACS visit to Pattaya next Wednesday June 6th.

Thank you for your replies.

As many know, at Jomtien immigration doing retirement extensions using INCOME LETTERS (from embassies) immigration has been allowing them to be as old as SIX MONTHS old for several years.

A recent report posted here says there has been a major policy change from SIX MONTHS down to ONE MONTH.

Of course this would be a very severe hardship (and even sometimes impossible) for many retired expats to meet that new requirement, if true.

Personally, I don't believe it is true. Our esteemed visa guru, Ubonjoe, also posted on the report thread that he also does not think there has been such a change.

But this matter is so vital for so many people that I think it's worth it to have a dedicated thread for FRESH REPORTS of people using income letters at Jomtien immigration to track it.

SO --- the simple question here is -- are income letters still allowed to be as old as six months or was the recent report here from a member saying it has changed to one month actually true.

Please help out with your FRESH reports. I suppose reports in the previous month would be useful too, but most useful are reports going forward from now. (May 31.)
