  1. Thanks to every one.

     

    Did mine yesterday.

    Arrived in the morning.

     

    Immigration Carpark closed

     

    Health screening

     

    Friendly people checking and assisting with paperwork.

     

    Got inside to counter then:

     

    Problem was the copy of the bank book (savings account).  It must be now updated on the day of the extension.  Although the update on this day would show the same as the previous day without any proof of date of update.

    Would not accept internet check.

    Apparently this is due to people trying to scam the system?

     

    Had to go back to the bank which didn't open till 11.  Tried to explain what I wanted.  Deposited 20 baht to show the correct date.  Bank was very good and redid bank letter at no cost. (Thanachart TMB bank Big C Hangdong rd)

     

    Note Bank letter valid for 7 days.

     

    Went back after the lunch break. 1300hrs.

     

    Process was fast and efficient out in under an hour.

     

    Apart from having to go back to the bank, vast improvement over previous years.  Although covid has vastly cut the numbers at this moment.  Kudos to staff and helpers. Well done!

     

    See what happens next year.

     

    Nice to know the appointments are back.

     

    Chok dee to all and keep safe.

    Thank you kenk24, but no thank you. Would never consider it unless my body starts to degrade and I truly needed the help. I did pay a sitter once just before they moved to Promenada, but I did my own paper work.

     

    I really just want to know what time is acceptable to show up for the que now, as before it has been that I went at all ungodly ugly times through-out the early morning over the years, and next would be do they require the statement from the bank to have to be on the same day or can be day before (besides bank book update on the day), and lastly the map and their idiotic having to be on their printed page. Mostly everything else is the same and straight forward I believe.

     

    Thank you for your kind reply.

    Arrive 0630. Sit down inside  Queue numbers 0700

    Copy 90 day.

    If not a term deposit bank 100 baht to update bank book. Bank letter.

    Pic at house.

    Took a couple hours.  Depends on queue 

    Keep cool.

    If he dies intestate, then yes she does. If he dies having made a valid will and his wife is not a beneficiary, then no she doesn't.

     

     

    No, it is not normal. Regardless, the owner he can give a letter of authority and a copy of his passport to someone, and they can go to the district office at the end of Sukhumvit Soi 55 (Thong Lo) and get a replacement for a very small fee. It is definitely better to do this while the gentleman is still alive, as when he is deceased it will not be quite as easy.

     

    Practically, you should:

     

    1. Have a duplicate key and access card to his condo.
    2. Know exactly where the will is
    3. Know exactly where the chanote is
    4. Know exactly where the car registration book and keys are
    5. Make sure all building common fees are paid and up to date (If they are not then someone will have to pay the fees and then somehow get the fees back at a later date).

    Death, a morbid subject.  Funeral arrangements.   Letter from embassy before a Thai death certificate is issued

      Need written permission to do the funeral.  Will,  will,  will

      Nationality?  I have a checklist for death of an Australian of required.  Asset distribution after death.  Pensions sale of property etc. Get a  Will ASAP.  Worth the expense.  Copies of death cert, notorised.  A big responsibility.   Chok dee

    Make a checklist.

  4. Are you a complete moron or just a misguided nationalistic stooge ?
    The gentleman is from the UK which played no part in the Vietnam war.
    If you are going to lump all Farangs together then lets do the same for all asians ok.
    Do the Chinese hate the Thais because the Japanese raped their women and slaughtered them indiscriminately ?
    Of course they dont , but by grouping races together that is exactly the inference you suggest.
    For goodness sake educate yourself and engage your brain before writing any more ignorant nonsense.


    After Japan capitulated the British occupied Vietnam. Even using the Japanese to keep the locals under control. Then the British handed it to the French. Colonists. We know what happened after that. Very sad for the people.

  5. For the computer and good HIFI gear buy a Linear Line Conditioner basically a black power box that protects from surges plus its useful it tells you the line voltage. Electricians I have had many come by that i test. I give them an AVO meter and ask them how they use to check phase neutral voltage for 3 phase power. When i get that dumb look I send them away.

    For those not British. Avo meter is a brand of multimeter. Haven't seen on since my Australian military days. Owned by Megger now. They made the earth leakage meters. Thanks for the memories. Have to go and Hoover the carpet now.

    found this on the TM30 online. TM30 website: https://extranet.immigration.go.th/fn24online/ xxxxxx Bangkok areas only - no option for Chiangmai xxxxxxxxxx Won't allow entry for Chiangmai province.  Will try Android app tommorrow.   Keep Smiling

  7. Their have been no changes to the rules for 400k baht in the bank option for an extension based upon marriage. It is still 400k baht in the bank on the date you apply. But many office want proof the 400k baht is still in the bank when you go back for the one year extension stamp after the under consideration period. After that you can do whatever you want to do with the 400k baht until you top up your account for the next extension.
     
    There are many ongoing topics about online TM30 reporting where you can find the info you are asking about.
    Thank you

  8. Spouse extension money

    What is the latest with the money for the spouse extension after applying?

    I know the retirement extension has been changed, having to leave various monies for the year.

    Simply can I spend it straight away and reseed in time before the next extension?

     

    TM30 Online registration.

    I can figure most of it out except what documents have to be sent with the request.

     

    Help pdf in Thai. Asked immigration and they were not sure. Then one reads that they held up because of incorrect documentation.

     

    With many thanks.

    It depends upon how somebody interprets the requirement in the immigration act. The correct interpretation is that it is required when you arrive at the residence for the first time.

    Changmai.  Need the bottom of the tm 30 for the yearly extension.  Never had one before.  When you go to get the tm 30 done they fine the Thai 1600 baht.  They don't care.  She should have known is the standard reply.

  10. I have USED JIB in the last couple of computers.  Check out there website for prices.  All in Thai but easy to figure out.

    Instead of  SDD use an m2 card.  Most new MB have a slot fit the card.

      About the same price now.  Kingston make them now.

     

    Best thing about JIB you don't pay till they get it working.

     

    Good luck.

    Saw one in the Pantip Plaza food court a few weeks ago.  Rats were the cause of the Bubonic Plague, but of course these are Thai rats, so mai bpen rai.

    Rats carried the infected fleas which when biting people passed the disease

    Fleas will also live on people. 

    That aside they are nasty creatures. 

    It's not only Chiangmai they are every where.  There are also water rats which I hear are quite tasty.
