Here they seem to be asking about a TM30. Would an updated "Receipt of Notification" suffice from my currently filed TM30?

Do you think that my landlord would want to give up his ID card and Tambien Baan at the IO. Would signed copies suffice?

I went to the Samut Prakan Immigration Office today and asked for a check list, they said they didn't have an English version. I extracted the text and got it translated: 1. Application Fee 1,900 Baht per person Header Immigration Division, Samut Prakan Province (Immigration Bureau 3) Tel: 02-395-0084, 095-095-1178 Email: Samutprakarn.extension[at]gmail.com Two sets of all documents required.

Would an updated "Receipt of Notification" suffice?

AI told me the names of the documents I need to ask for: Here are the usual Thai terms for those two documents: Standard bank letter หนังสือรับรองยอดเงินคงเหลือจากธนาคาร (nang-sue rap-rong yôt ngern khong-luea chak tha­na­khan) 3-month detailed transaction report รายงานรายการเดินบัญชีย้อนหลัง 3 เดือน (rai-ngaan rai-gaan dern ban-chee yon-lang šaam duean) For future reference.

Maybe if I get her on the phone? Worked at the airport immigration desk after they tried to stop me from leaving with my daughter (this is despite having the right documents in place from the amphur and having done it before on numerous occasions).

Of course she will be with me on that day yes, but I have to prepare everything.

She works full time in HR in the city. It's quite difficult to get her out of the office, especially on a weekday, needs to be planned ahead in advance. I work at home and do the school runs and try to do any menial tasks related to immigration myself.

So wife must be there with me at the amphur to get it ? or can I get it on my own?

So theoretically the KR2 doesn't have to be done on the day, it just has to be recent, the trip to the bank on the other hand needs to be done on the day?

Yes Immigration offices are like hospitals for me, don't like them 😅but will be going in the mornign tomorrow. Thank you for takign the time to reply with this information, much appreciated. One more question. I will have to get the documents at the bank and amphur on my own as due to the nature of my wife's job, she can only join me in the afternoon at the IO. Is there a word in Thai I can show at the bank to save me having to explain what I need?

Thanks for the info, what documents do you need to ask for at the amphur and bank? Is it a quick and easy process?

I'd like some clarity and any tips as to what to do and prepare in my situation for the 12 month marriage extension. Here's my background with some questions: I have never done this extension before at any IO in Thailand. So have absolutely no idea about anything in this process, just some rough info on documents that would be needed. I have asked agents and they seem to not help with this kind of service for some reason. I have had 400k sitting in a Thai bank since January. I have 9 year old daughter (so is a witness needed? will she need to also be present?) I have a rental agreement and live in a condominium (do the immigration police even visit condos? does the wife and child have to be present whilst they are visiting?) Am still married but haven't done anything in terms of updating any kind of marriage documents. I can't even remember the amphur in Bangkok where we registered at but it wasn't the one where we are now. So if I do need the documents updated could I do it any any amphur? The marriage visa I am on now expires August 1st....when is the best time to kick start this process? If anyone knows the current and updated checklist for this extension for this particular office, Samut Prakan, I'd be grateful if you'd share, it'd save me a trip.

To some of the idiots posting nonsense, I just survived an 8.2 magnitude earthquake in Bangkok in a condo that was built in 2017. This post sure aged well.

She does, she has both Thai and UK passports but wife is concerned about the small print on the form she made for me at the amphur. The amphur wouldn't let me write one for her and said I have to do it at the British embassy . I was like seriously? (I'm taking our daughter to the UK after she gets back from Korea)
