  1. We are going through the process to get a passport from my Thai daughter. 

    I received a letter saying "Certified True Copies and translations" are required for both the Mother and Child's Birth Certificates.

    We got the translations at one of the registered translation services on the gov.uk website - so i am guessing the translations are okay. How do you get "certified true" copies? Do I need to go the registration office and get a "stamped" copy? We sent a photocopy of the original along with a notarised translation? 

    TIA

  2. Okay, for starters i was poorly informed by Thai visa that i had to restart my whole process again:

    http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/740576-get-non-immigrant-b-again/

    1. I had a tourist visa.

    2. I have a work permit valid till the 12th of August.
    3. People indicated that this would mean i would need to do the whole process again as a tourist visa is not applicable with a work permit.

    I did my homework thoroughly - i was in constant contact with the embassy for weeks. Be thorough!!

    And brought:

    Work Permit (which was returned to me)
    Contract
    Invitation Letter
    Work permit & Passport of my boss
    Company business documents, company tax documents and my own tax documents.

    I showed up, no people - bright and early handed all my documents, was in and out in 20 minutes.

    You have to wait 3 days for processing, but i went and picked up today. No hard questions. Nothing - a breeze. Multiple Entry Non-B.

  4. Hey All,

    I received a 3-month non-immigrant B visa last year from Vientiane, and went through a lot of trouble and money, as i am not a teacher getting all the correct forms from labour department etc.

    Unfortunately, i was not able to convert it to a year long with my work permit, due to Salary and Thai employ requirements. I have since used tourist visa's. My work permit is in date - as i have recently claimed injury insurance on it.

    My new passport currently has one triple entry from the UK, however i have just be given a 30 day stamp from Burma.

    Is there anyway i can apply for a non-immigrant B visa again - after the screw up, without going through all the stress. I am not even sure i can do it in the allocated time. Or do i need to just get grafting, and get all my forms in order all over again?

    Does anybody else have a similar experience.

    Thanks,

    Sean

  5. It was a good game, If not rather one sided after the ridiculous sending off and penalty early in the second half. I watched it in the Red Lion as for some reason True decided to show it. Well done to Hearts on a 5-1 win.

    Thats absolute madness. I sat in my house screaming at the computer....

    In fairness it is probably best i was in the safe confines of my house. I shut the laptop at 4-1 and went and watched Marmaduke. You know its down the tubes when you're watching a film about a talking dog.

  6. Yeh, i just wanted to watch it in a bit of atmosphere it looks like an online stream is on the card though!

    Phew that was a close call, thought there was the possibilty of a Scot being off the lead for a second there.

    Mate if we win, I wont merely be off the lead I will be the farrang that gets arrested for jumping into the moat naked.
