There are more qualified than I to address this topic.  But, nobody else has stepped up.
So, like the authors of The Fundamentals of Thai, I am.

This poster is a troll and has been banned.

This is an unofficial commercial website, with associated mistakes and omissions.

"You must have had a Thai non-immigrant visa for at least three years prior to the submission of your application. Holders of multiple NON-Immigrant visas can not apply. You must have 3 consecutive yearly extensions in order to qualify.
You must be a holder of a non-immigrant visa at the time of submitting your application."

It contradicts itself about visas/extensions :-(  The requirement is 3 unbroken years of yearly extensions.

Also, no mention of the 80k a month salary requirement. Because of this, PR is not available to those on retirement extensions.

For those that are married, there is no requirement to obtain PR before applying for citizenship, (should that be the desired end result).

An application should contain a detailed explanation of the true and exact reasons of why the applicant is requesting a residence permit. This is for the applicant's own benefit; as such information will assist the relevant officials to make a more rapid decision.
