    No such thing as defacto in Thailand re legal entitlement.

    Personally I have same Thai partner for 10 years and she would not have any right to the funds I keep in bank for extensions.

    Just another PITA associated with living in this wonderful country. 

    Another option not mentioned so far is to use agent to avoid funds in bank.

     

    Edit: sorry Andrew missed point of your post. 

    I have approached my banks about my partner (not wife) being silent on my account.

    I got the "you need marry" 

     

     

    Not so smart after all........

    How could there not be, if the passport is expiring? The OP has no choice but to go back to UK, where at least he has the benefit of applying online and getting a new passport in a lot less than 11 weeks. Then he has to start the process of establishing his status in Thailand all over again....

    You are right, of course if his passport is expiring so is any existing right to stay........evidently not aware of any of this. 

  3. You make no mention of any impending visa extensions, so go ahead

    with the renewal, which I assume, with the 11-week wait time, is for a

    British Passport.

     

    You will retain your old passport intact until the new one comes through,

    so will still be good for ID and 90-day reports.

     

    Amazed as ever, that folks get 10 years notice of the expiry date of their

    passport yet still.....

  4. Think Korat getting more picky. Had the same

    "notification of aliens address" slip in my passport 

    for the last five years. When doing my recent 

    extension the document checker had a small 

    seizure saying the slip needed to be updated,

    so, like you, was duly dispatched to Room 101.

     

    The "update", with exactly the same information

    actually took longer to process than my extension.
