I hope I am in the right forum, but I am hoping someone can help me with my travel problems..I am bringing my wife to live with me in the states and the flight is on April 1. I am concerned as I am 71 years old and have diabetes and COPD,but I am healthy at this time In regards to my flight, I am traveling with transit in Manilla to LAX. Will I be subject to a mandatory self quarantine at LAX if I have no symptoms of Covid 19..My flight has not been cancelled, but I was hoping someone here might have any ideasor have experienced the POE(Port of Entry} protocol at LAX.My wife has her visa in hand and all supporting documents and we hope to clear customs without any big problems...Thanks in advance

Yes, we are legally married for over 2 years and had a thai ceremony last April..We have been living together for over 4 years and I am here now with a marriage extension already..Yes, she has two grown daughters, one in University in Korat and the other lives here in Pattaya. She also has a grandson 2 months old.Her mom also lives in Korat, so she is definitely coming back, so I shouldn't have too much trouble if my finances are enough to satisfy my financial obligations..hope so..thank you so much!!

That's very helpful.. I started filling out the form, and , yes it is so long.. My finances are somewhat small, about 400,000bht in bank account and have my condo chinote that I own my room here in Pattaya..I don't know if that's enough to satisfy their requirements. What do you think?? sorry to bother you again. Will they specify what documents she needs to bring for the interview?? I think I'll be able to handle the rest..

Thanks, so my wife thinks that I need a letter of financial support from my cousin or a invitation letter from her..She thinks that the letter has to be original and sent by post rather then online?? Is any of that true or has she got outdated or untrue details...Thanks again..

I am a US citizen...68 years old and living in Thailand with my thai wife 47 years old..She has a large family here..2 daughters, mom, brothers and sisters all living in Thailand and has been fully employed in Pattaya as an accountant for the last 6 years..I want to take her for a holiday to visit my 75 year old cousin in New Jersey who we will be staying withfor about 30 days...How difficult will it be to obtain a tourist visa and what additional information will I need to satisfy the US Embassy in Bkk.. Di I need a financial support letter from my cousin or just a letter of invitation?? What other financial documents do I need and what amount of money must I have to satisfy them..?? Also, the Dsc-160 form says you need a USCIS petition receipt#?? How do I obtain this?? and it also asks about vaccinations??? What does she need to fulfill this request?? Does she need health insurance??

          Thanks in advance for any tips you can offer me.. From this forum, I have concluded that Thai firms that offer you help for completing this process are both overpriced and inadequate, and I am willing to try to help myself first...I'll need some good luck, of course//

Actually, the owner said he was leaving to Norway because of medical treatment, so, I believe the phone# is correct.Morten is the current owner of this business..I believe he will be gone for about 1 or 2 weeks..

Good Luck to you all, Barry

OK, I finally got my security door from http://www.artsteel.net/ and was quite satisfied with their work and professionalism..It did take longer than expected (owner was having medical issues) but he kept to his word and the price was exactly what he quoted me which I think was quite fair 3,500bht..

Thanks for the help, guys

Barry

Thank you guys for all your help...Yes, indeed, I just met with Morten from artsteel.net and in answer to some of the comments..

Yes, they use wrought iron, for standard security door will cost 3500bht..

They are, indeed, very professional and will do custom made if you want.

So, it will take 1 week before installation and, so far, I am very pleased as to their way of handling business. If anyone is interested here are the details:

Thanks, Barry

I am looking for shop/ phone that could build me a custom-made wrought iron security door with mosquito screen. The ones you add to the regular door and allow airflow, when regular door open. I am located by Big C Extra and have had trouble finding aplace that can measure my door and give me reasonable price...Any ideas would be greatly appreciated..
Thank you! BL
