@Corkyboy Thanks for the reply.  This makes me feel I can get this application done a lot sooner.  I think it was you who said you had Blue Cross.  I also have Blue Cross, in the form of GeoBlue, so I have global health insurance.  Their app allows users to request a notarized insurance letter that can be downloaded and submitted to Thailand... in theory.

I will use the email you gave to ask them more question.  I, like many people, do my taxes electronically.  I hope they accept the returns that my tax software generates and not require an IRS produced copy.

Is there an attorney in Thailand willing to buffer an account (Skirt) the minimum pension/retirement income requirements? I'm just short!  Any ideas?

There are visa agencies doing that everywhere in Thailand.

Thank you forever.

To be more precise, with everywhere I mean where there are expats or tourists.

Hello

Is there anyone applying for Highly skilled LTR visa?

@CryptoDaddy

Mind sharing what Lawyer / Attorney office you used to handle visa process?

Thanks,

I did it myself online, very easy.  Starts by filing an application, guided instructions to follow, if they wanting you to buy health insurance, it means buy it from local health insurance, which I did for one year, no big deal.  Good luck

Thanks for posting. I'm on a marriage extension, but am considering getting LTR, since I meet all the requirements. With the new Foreign-sourced income tax rules that went into effect on Jan 1, 2024, the LTR (Wealthy Pensioners) visa will exempt most income remitted into Thailand. And, since I can apply online at 50k for 10 years, that's only 5k per year. Right now, I pay 5,700 per year for my marriage extension (1,900 + 3,800 for multiple re-entry permit), and I dislike having to go to IM every year. The multiple re-entry is included with the LTR visa, plus you get fast track at airport and only have to report 1 time per year instead of every 90 days. Although, I get fast track at airport anyway because I fly business class. The additional cost of 20k per year for medical coverage is a turn-off for me. But, if you can show $100k US in bank for 12 months, which I can, then I wouldn't have to buy the medical coverage. I want to see how things go with the new Tax rules before switching to the LTR visa.
