  1. Seriously?? Have you been living in a cave for the past 6 years? ????
  2. There's a new 1, even for Pattaya. How much do the soi dogs charge you to beat them off? ????
  3. Funny that the link to the updates of this BS story comes back as "Page Not Found". Maybe you should give up on CNN and follow the release of the Twitter files.
  4. The memory span of a goldfish here - 4 years ago Pelosi and company tried to impeach President Trump for a phone call with this guy calling him a thief, a crooked leader of a crooked country, etc. Now Pelosi nearly falls over her desk trying to shove her plastic face into his for a kiss and when she showed him the American Flag they had for him as a gift he blew it off like it was nearly insulting. The guy wasn't back in his country 48 hrs before he went to a summit meeting looking for a post-war rebuilding loan. He's now received 130% of his yearly defense budget in cash from the US plus arms, misfired 1 of those rockets into Poland killing 3 people and banned media reports that aren't censored and approved by him. This SHOULD have been a U.N. issue from the start and then fallen to NATO, NOT the US.
  5. Is Snow"Balling" allowed? ????
  6. Marry the partner, adopt the child, divorce the partner. There's a BIG difference in becoming a legal guardian and just having a Thai change their birth name. First names are a snap and are done regularly in Thailand but a "Family" name opens a whole LOT of legal issues. Birthrights, Military Lottery, Thai Citizenship Rights, etc. My father did it with his ex and my newest, youngest 'brother' but he was married, obtained visas to the states for them both, got her citizenship and THEN adopted him with a name change (First AND Last). Question is, to do it now, what are YOU willing to do?
  7. I've always kept a separate account with 400k+ and bump it by 1k the day I apply for the BB update. For the OP, 2 months for certain and 3 to be safe.
  8. Why not just fly to HCMC and apply for the retirement visa? About the same price as all the visa run groups but no long rides. Keep in mind the 800k in the bank requirement unless you can prove 65k a month in income.
  9. Just get all your docs in order and go 30 days before your current stay expires (Feb 27?). That should give you 45-ish days before your flight out. IF you need to leave before they stamp your approved extension AND you don't need to physically hold your passport, you COULD over-night it to your wife and she can collect your new stamp and over-night it back to you. Just a thought.
  10. To obtain any visa from an embassy or consulate you must present a reason - when the reason becomes invalid, so does the visa (students that don't study, retirees that work, married persons whom are no longer married, tourists that get a job). I would bet dollars to donuts that if his ex took the divorce papers down to the local IO they would soon pay him a visit.
  11. Technically valid but no longer legal and can put the OP in a world of hurt if discovered by an anonymous (ex) tip.
  12. Depending on how much space you need, have a look at Regent Home 27/28. Has MRT (Bang Son) at the entrance, bus stop across the street and at the entrance, daily street market 2 - 3 blocks down. Rent is 7-9k and some for sale at around 1.2m. ETA: Courtesy shuttles from the street back in the the 2 complexes (being set back reduces traffic noise)
  13. You have 2 months to marry her sister. Better get cracking.
  14. The construction company is owned by a minister perhaps? ????
  15. thought arrival/departure cards were done away with. Didn't get 1 when I flew in in Aug. 2022.
  16. Don't know how close you are to "Swampy" (the airport) but you might take a ride out there, go to the Emerites desk and ask for a supervisor. Take copies of everything from the beginning and see what they say. Could be she/he'll just cancel it in the computer right then and there. Heck, you might even end up with a voucher towards your next flight. ???? Had a similar experience with United being operated by JAL, went to the JAL desk and got an upgrade with lounge access and a free hotel with food vouchers from United. ???? Sometimes the employees are on your side.
