  1. Thanks Jack. Yes still have the 2 Visa Exempts up the sleeve. No kids. Cheers
  2. Thanks for the input. Prior to this I have been in Thailand since 2019 on a combo of ME Non Os and Marriage extensions. But am now divorced. How do you think this situation will be viewed?
  3. If the relevant supporting docs are is in order, is there any issue obtaining a 2nd Tourist Visa (SE) from Savannahket directly after receiving another Tourist Visa from there 3 months prior? Never left the country - extended the 60 day visa at Immigration. Tia
  4. People would be shocked to know the amount of intel operatives (state sponsored and private) that are imbedded into the fringe of the right and left. They are at the rallies, protests and are generally the driving force of many groups (think Proud Boys, Antifa, etc). Sure there are plenty of true believers within these groups. But they are being led and handled for the most part. Their objectives are many, but at the very least, keeping the public at eachothers throats and distracted with nonsense issues is a big one. The biggest fear of the corrupt elite is a united and mobilized public.
  5. Can see there is a thread by George that is a cpl of weeks old now, detailing huge ques and a bevvy of issues at the Penang Consulate recently. Just wondering if there is any more recent updates? Was hoping to grab a Non O Multi Entry based on parenting a Thai child. Has anyone heard of these being approved recently? Thanks in advance!
  6. Cheers Tim. That's a good thread for me to follow up. Actually got one of those MEs many years back before being married but having a child.
  7. Hi Todd, Sorry to hijack this thread. You mentioned at Savanaket a Non O based on supporting your Thai child only bears Single Entry. Just wanted to double check that if you don't mind? And in that case, is there anywhere to obtain a Multi Entry based on this scenario?
  8. Presuming all went well on Monday. Thanks for the report, fun to read. Something caught my eye that would like to hear a bit more on.. You mentioned something about ATK covid tests and hospitals. If you have a minute would be great to hear what that's all about? Something to do with looking a bit off colour? (you mentioned having a cold). Incidentally, on your way in to Lao, were there any covid requirements? ATK test or vax papers?
  9. Thanks guys. Can confirm Mister T is correct as far as Hua Hin Immi is concerned.
  10. Thanks guys. Was thinking to pop into immigration. I am a little hesitant as the divorce was officially filed 4 months ago and was concerned that as I didn't update them quick smart they may take issue. Is there any danger in Immigration taking the stance that as I'm no longer married, my current extension is invalid and therefore in Thailand unlawfully? My current 12 month extension expires in January.
  11. Currently staying in Thailand on a Non O 1 Year Extension based on Marriage. However, recently divorced. I have a child that is a Thai National. Before being married I used Non O 12 Month Multi Entry Visas based on being a parent of a Thai child. Just wondering what my options are.. Is it possible just to apply for another 12 month extension, but this time based on having a Thai child? Or do I need to leave and re-enter on a new Non O? And then submit an app to Immigration for extension based on being a parent of a Thai child. Or is there another process I can use that I'm not aware of? Thanks in advance!
  12. Cheers for all the replies guys, much appreciated. I just noticed that VFS Bangkok is still operating on a very limited schedule. Mostly for taking biometrics. Guessing this is when they would check off original docs, etc and take the applicants passport. Anyway, will try to get in touch with them now to see what they have to say. Will report back..
  13. Thanks for the reply. My concern with translating was based on thinking that if applying through the IMMI site currently, maybe the application ends up on the desk of a public servant back in Australia who would want it translated. This would be a real pain in the proverbial given the current visa turnaround times and the likely outcome of going to the back of the line. But I guess it would be logical to think that the applications lodged through IMMI are still being farmed back out to VFS in Bangkok or possibly the Oz embassy. Anyone have anything on this? And when uploading docs to IMMI, it mentions for Passport and ID that they are to be "certified". Last cpl of times we applied, I either send the originals to VFS or lodged in person (with originals and copies) so I guess they do the certifying. Cheers for the info on the 3 Yr visa too ????
  14. I know this won't be easy but thinking of getting an application in the works given the wait times. I am currently in Thailand so would be travelling with the Thai wife. According to the guidelines I have read, this is theoretically ok without getting an exemption as immediate family. But gather getting the visa and indeed a flight is a whole other issue. Previously have obtained Tourist visas through VFS in Bangkok which was pretty straight forward. With VFS there was no need to translate Thai docs such as marriage certificate, etc. And certifying just meant signing each copied page. Now I understand the only option is too apply for visas directly via an IMMI account/website. In that case would I need to have any docs in Thai translated? And does certifying require an "authorized person" or notary to sign and stamp? One more thing. I have noticed mentioned 3 Year Tourist Visas to Australia a couple of times on the boards. Does anyone know if these on the table and how you go about requesting/supporting an app for one? TIA for any help!
