If it is your first extension on the current visa, the yes, you will get 60 days for being a family member of a Thai national (In this case your child).
Docs are passport, birth certificate, child's tabien baan and some proof of residence(lease, letter from house owner)? I stand to be corrected, but I think that was it...

Go Home!
I mean it is obvious she can't fit or live in the society she chose to move to. So the only solution is to move back to the one she can live in. That is if her Father and Brother allow her to do this that is.
Actually, her sob story of not being able to go to school is nonsense. Her religion does not technically ban her from going to these activities without a niqab; Her husband and the religious sect he's part of, does.

How much different/better would your life experience have been if for your whole life you were judged only on your character/actions and not pre-judged based on appearance.
Exactly, my brother in law is white, and he is a succesful and is viewed as having "white male privilege" when he visits the US. Nobody asks how his family fled persecution and genocide in Eastern Europe, sold all their possessions to buy tickets to move to Namibia of all places and then had to work 7 days a week for years to keep food on their plates, let alone go to school.
Too bad people couldn't judge him on his character rather than his skin colour.

This is a total farce.
And some people still can't see it. All those naive optimists who really, sincerely, trustingly believe that we are going to have an 'election' in February.
For Goodness' sake: see the writing on the wall.
THERE IS GOING TO BE ANOTHER DELAY!
THERE IS NOT GOING TO BE AN ELECTION NEXT FEBRUARY!!
"THERE IS GOING TO BE ANOTHER DELAY!
THERE IS NOT GOING TO BE AN ELECTION NEXT FEBRUARY!!"
That's what the DPM said - the delay's already happened (11 months from today is May 2019)

In what world done one suggestion equal 'so many'? In Juntaland I guess - where one suggestion is one too many.

Not sure about the forward thinking school director comment. Look at the regimented (almost frightened to do something wrong?) faces on the kids waiting for their hug and chance to speak English before going into class. Although the teacher may be genuine in her love for her students, their faces show all that is wrong with the Thai education system.
All I see is a bunch of 8 year olds that mighy be a bit camera shy and/or are trying their best to behave for the camera.

Thanks - so these fellas didn't embezzled temple funds from the poor, buy sports or vintage cars, have private jets or shag dead bodies..........I could understand the comments if that were the case...
Those orange shit stains have already received their share of insults...what's your point? Because other monks do bad deeds, this guy needs to be given a break? The 'Buddhist' sect is one of the main root causes of systemic problems in this country, the other has universal legal protection so I won't call anyone out.

They are in jail for this "over alleged unauthorised use of royal initials in amulet making and the other over his alleged actions as a co-leader of the People’s Democratic Reform Committee protests in 2014. "
Why all the vitriol - Have I missed something??
I really don't mind being educated on the subject...politely
All charges in legal casesstart with "alleged" - the facts are that he was involved with protests with the aim to overthrow the elected government, he was in charge of a group that umlawfully captured police officers, and as a monk he should have no direct dealing with money, let alone fraudulently creating amulets which by definition are fraudulent.
He is as corrupt as his captors - I guess that's where the vitriol comes from.

The fact that one even needs to show a house book is ridiculous. Half the nation does not live at the addresses.
The entire nation is getting set up for data theft. They can't even get the online 90 day reporting system sorted after how many years?
They don't have to show their ID cards which by law they need to have on their person anyway. So genius.
Try visiting a random ministry website: If you're using Chrome there's a good chance you be given the red screen of "turn back now" - their websites are about as safe as condom stapled to its cover.

I can't believe I'm saying this: I agree with the customs officials. (And I hate them).
A "group" is not a legal entity that enters a sovereign state. If the law says you can't have more than 1 litre and you have 3 litres in your bag, you're subject to tax. They made a silly mistake and then went online screaming injustice.
If the "group" exception IS a new way to get around the import tax, next time I'll load my bag with 23 litres and if questioned will mention that I cam with a "group" of about 250 passengers.
Again, I have little love for customs (I've had to pay for homemade clothes sent to me <deleted>)

As is often the case when it comes to Thai immigration topics/terms etc. Photos of your work permit stamps and passport stamps will make it easier to give you the correct advice.

Make it a gazillion dollars - who gives a shit. It won't be enforced.
Remember the police captain a few years back who got asked to do a breathalyser test: he refused... the cop requesting the test was reprimanded, and the head of the police sent a memo that all cops memorise the number plates of senior officers so as not to pull them over. Nobody gave a shit that the "law" was refusing a breathalyser test is an admission of guilt.

In a country that is usually reluctant to "open" any jobs for foreigners, I would guess that the government discovered that there was a shortage of hairdressers hence the need to get foreigb help. ?
I'm sure Janthipha Khwanwatana has looked at the big picture. ?

The gesture is honourable, but seeing as he is a former Police Commissione,r I would hazard a guess that the gentleman was about as honourable as a pimp.

My son told me today (student M6) that the moral majority of all Thai seem to hate P1 and P2. Not dislike but hate. So as I take it this speaks hugely.
We also found out today that when a kid takes the choice to do M3 - M6 for military training or awareness to escape the draft at 21, that it is a farce. Yes you will not do the pick a color draft, but you are indeed in the military for life as a reserve. Now what kind of hogwash is this pile of doodoo.
We put him into the training so he would be free from the arsholes.
Also from the powers that be they have increased the training method this year. Is Big and small p expecting an invasion? Or are they keeping themselves surrounded with slaves to be safe?
R.O.T.C. stands for "Reserve Officers Training Course" so I'm not sure why you're surprised.
It's still better than conscription though because the Chance of reserves being called up is very small: Enlisted soldiers are around 200,000 and Thailand has not been involved in anything more than a border skirmish or occasional crackdown on civilians, so they've got plenty to spare before they need the reserves.

Arrogant prick - obviously the attendees DO want to the gathering (or are they not real people) ?

Oh, hang on... No they haven't have they !!! Damn, thought I was on to a winner there....
They never said they did that, so you're being unfair (They said the were going to...)
But in terms of a winner, I've got one: They solved the problem of overcharged lottery tickets and now all tickets are 80 Baht.
EDIT TO ADD: Just popped out to buy my lottery ticket - didn't get change for my hundred (I'm sure this was an isolated incident)

How? 3+ years ago, the EU gave Thailand 6 months to clean up the fishing industry. Thailand did jack shit, and the EU rescinded its threat of a red-card.
The fact is that as long as people in the EU want cheap fish products, the EU lawmakers will ignore what happens in Thailand.

Point is: another new law/threat that is meaningless without enforcement. (Uber operated under threats for 2+ years before they sold - never any real action)
