  1. I contacted the DWP and the said they had sent a proof of life form to my address in January 2025. Which I never received, but i received pamphlets of them in March and April, so they must have my present address. I also received a proof of life form by email, told to fill in and send back by post. I received and email on Friday saying the payment was sent on the 26th of June.
  2. I received an email saying the money was sent on the 26th of June. so I think it won't hit the bank till maybe Tuesday, I usually get mine on the 14th of every month.
  3. MY (Thai) wife took her driving test about 2 years ago. After her first day, she came home and I asked her how it went, she told me she had just driven all day from 7:30am to 5pm, 1 hour break for lunch, on major roads in rush hour traffic. Without an accident. Car was automatic. gears.
  4. Do they have your present address? They may be looking for PROOF OF LIFE.
  5. I have heard of UK pensions being transferred very late this Month (June). A friend of mine usually gets theirs on the 5th, but hasn't received it as of today, the 11th,
  6. Yrs, and the Cambodian people living on that border are going nuts, because they usually cross into Thailand to buy produce which they take back into Cambodia to sell to the Cambodian people. Talking about tons of Veg, pork, beef, chiken, and fruit every day.
  7. Agree. I have been renewing my Retirement visa every year, showing B800,000 in the bank and my state and Army pensions paid in every month, no problem.
  8. I don't do mobile banking, but same as you I have True online and True Vision and my phone is in my wifes name. I just pay the bill!
  9. Boy Scouts and Girl Guides same as any other country, UK used to have Brownies.
  10. This I have just found on a translantion about pensions with a double tax treaty. It’s a pension you earned before 2024. Keep your pension record well just in case the Revenue Department ask for it. There’s a double taxation agreement between Thailand and your country stating that the pension, mainly from the government, is subject to tax exclusion. It’s a pension that falls under non-accessible income, such as payments from the US Social Security. On the other hand, if it’s a pension from a private company, such as through an investment, it’s likely that you need to pay tax on that.
  11. To be truthful, they didn't seem to know a lot about anything.
  12. I have been told TWICE by my local tax revenue office. NO TAX ON RETIREMENT PENSION.
  13. They can only Lease it. 30 years, 30 years, 30 years totalling 90 years. You buy the house on one contract and lease the land on another contract. any other way is not legal.
  14. And Idiots are still sending money to her Gofundme account. How stupid people are. No the money isn't for her son. I agree with you, let her stew.
