I'll be heading to laos next week(Vientiane) to submit my application and I'm not really sure what to do under the occupation part. I'm not yet at state pension age but do get a small monthly private pension (not a great deal) . I haven't worked for a few years but I don't really need to, so was wondering should I just put unemployed? I have more than the required 500,000 in one account that has been in there for around a year but if I put unemployed I wonder whether they will see the small monthly deposits from the pension fund and get a bit curious? I know no one can say for sure but I'm torn between the putting retirement or unemployed.
Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is uncertain about how to categorize their occupation on a visa application for Laos. They receive a small private pension and haven't worked for a few years. They're considering whether to label themselves as 'unemployed' or 'retired,' noting concerns that being unemployed might draw attention to their pension income. Commenters suggest labeling themselves as 'retired' since the visa isn't income-based and to avoid complications.
