Update!! looks like we have the problems solved. Will get a tourist visa-multiple entry even w/ one-way ticket.

johnnyk and roel: sage advice. Indeed I've studied many countries to retire in for the past 6 years w/ a heavy concentration on th. I've lived in some 58 countries, but th has some of the most complicated visa rules. not to mention no one in the th gov't can even seem to agree what the rules are. an...

sorry sateen, i took your comments wrong. I'm an old fart and never been on a forum such as this or any for that matter. did not know you could shop embassies for the desired result.

Sorry, we are both U.S. Citizens. we have a one way airlines ticket. Neither of us plan or desire to work. As I understand the visa rules we more than qualify on an income basis w/ about $60,000 a year in income. I plan on bringing proof of income etc. I hope this helps. not sure what all info would...
