I refuse to engage with any members that use the moronic word "sheeple" and especially when used as a name calling attack. This is just too low level for anyone's time.
GOODBYE.
And goodbye to you too. As they say, "don't let the door...."

The 60-day extension does not require financial proof. Only the one-year extension has financial requirements.
Sorry, I should have specified first 1 year marriage
extension.

Does the first extension based on marriage using the income method need to be for 1 year or 2 months?

How long have you lived here? Haven't made any mom and pop shop contacts?
A lot of the mom and pop shops have run out of stock...

Russell I think you should reread my post. "Ken, with the visa that you have you do not do 90 day reports to the IO, instead you must do a border run every 90 days and when you re-enter then you must do a TM30 under the normal conditions but with the Covid-19 you cannot do your 90 day border run so you do not do your TM30 either."
Again, my visa expired on February 17, so I was in Thailand from February 1 when I did a border run which gave me an additional 90 days to April 30. So being that April 30 I cannot do a border run it would have been 90 days in Thailand and indeed I would normally have to do a 90 day address report if I didn't leave Thailand. As I said the IO said no need to do anything including the 90 day address report because of Covid 19. And nothing to do with a TM 30 which by the way I did on line anyway on February 2.
Russell, you might also reread sjbrown post as it was quite clear what he had and what he was doing. I only went to Korat immigration to confirm because of so many many confusing reports in Thai visa.

I was in a similar situation. My 1 year multiple entry O visa (marriage) from Savannakhet expired on February 17, 2020. I did a border run on February 1, 2020 giving my current stay to April 30, 2020. Just in case, as I wasn't sure, I went to Korat immigration 2 days ago. They confirmed that my stay is good until July 31 and no need for 90 day address reporting. Actually I had tried to do a 90 day report on line as I have done so in the past, but the site would not accept the application. So while at Korat immigration they did confirm that no need for a 90 day reporting of address.

Any update on the Savannakhet border? Is it open or closed?

Just got back from my local amphur with my wife. Attached is a copy of the "updated" Kor Ror 2, side 1 and side 2. We were informed that the name change document did not come into being until 2551 and we were married in 2547, so no such document exists.
And when I go to Savannakhet in April, I will take the Kor Ror 2 with me, but I have no intention to show or give them the Kor Ror 2, unless specifically asked.

Remaining confused. Kor Ror 2 or Kor Ror 22. Anybody have a copy or scan of either document that they can post?

Anybody have a copy/scan of a kor ror 22 that they can post?

Anybody here who has one, perhaps could post a scan (copy) of it with whatever personal details blacked out. Then I could show it to wife.

Just asked my wife about this. We have been married for 13 years. She has no idea what this certificate is. How to get one if needed?

Got the user name and password for my wife. That worked fine. But I have just returned from a trip to Laos, Nong Khai friendship bridge and have tried to fill in the form. When I try to "record" it, I keep getting a pop up that says "Import Data in Sequence (1) is incorrect. Please correct before submitting." I have use the drop down menus that are available, but no matter what I enter I can't get past this. Anybody, any thoughts?

Online TM 30 is for hotels only that's what I was told last week so you can't do Tm30 online it has to be done in person at your local immigration office unless something new online has started in the last week?
Sorry, but you were told wrong. Several people have already reported that they did this successfully as has been reported a few weeks already.

Stupid question I guess. But where do I find the "app"?

The same form is used for all visa applications. Download: Savannakhet 2501-01-31.PDF
The PDF is a two page document. Can you tell me if it is a 1 page front and back or do you only need to print page 1, the actual application?

They staple a new slip into your passport on a 90 day report. At least they do at Jomtien.
I have always removed that stapled piece of paper when leaving and never had a problem.

I just tried. You just get a page which says "under construction", applications to be made in person, via an "authorised person", or by registered mail.
I just tried also and got the same as you. It worked this past Friday when I submitted the report and I got my confirmation number. Will wait a bit before I make the trip to immigration. Maybe it will be fixed by then.

I just returned from Vientiane last Wednesday. I went with a UK friend who was applying for and O visa based on retirement. He had his bankbook details, Thailand address, etc. The officer insisted he must also have a bank letter and refused him the O visa. He got a tourist visa and will have to go back again in 60 days with the bank letter to get the O visa. Oh well.
And that would be last week Wednesday, August 10.

Yes. Sorry about the health issues. Maybe not worth much to you but I have been doing on line 90 day reports for the past year with no problems. Yes, Korat is my area.

Thanks Ken for the update
Have I got this correct , So this time you were never asked by the immigration officer about the the TM 30 form in any way ?
What do you think may have been different if your wife had been with you ?
TL
Basically you have it correct. They did not say anything about whether my Thai wife had filed a TM 30 form. They only asked if my wife was with me. And actually they never have asked me personally about this. Last year the officer told me I had to bring my wife with me next time, but not saying the reason, and I said "sure". Of course, as said, I did not bring her yesterday. My original reason for starting the thread was because some friends in the village were telling me that they were recently getting hit with the fine and their wives were with them.
So yesterday, if I had taken the wife with me, I think they would have asked my wife about it but who knows. As mentioned, I had recently made a trip to Laos and on my return, my wife did file a TM 30 via registered mail (EMS). She never got any kind of acknowledgment back from them, but I did have copies of the completed form as well as The EMS receipt with a printout of the tracking showing that it had been delivered. Again, they never asked and I did not volunteer.

Completed my yearly retirement extension with multiple re-entry permit, this morning in Korat. Relatively painless. I did not take my Thai wife. The officer did ask me if my wife was with me, and of course the answer was no. No other comment other than asking me to confirm that the address on my forms were the same as my wife. Of course the address was the same and I supplied signed copies of both my wife's house book and ID card, I actually had left the country for a quick trip to Laos last month and on my return I did have the wife mail in a TM 30 by registered mail. They never returned any thing to my wife to confirm receipt even though I supplied a self addressed envelope in the package. I did take with me copies of the TM 30 as well as the EMS register receipt, also with a printout of the package being delivered. In the end, never was asked and I didn't volunteer. So in my particular case nothing happened. If my wife had been with me, then who knows? They were not busy and I was in and out in 1 hour 15 minutes.
