The e system they are talking about is for extending a visa exempt entry or a Tourist Visa for 30 days. Nothing to do with extensions of stay based on marriage or retirement.

What bribe are you talking about?, no bribe involved.

American humour I am afraid. I always wondered why Americans laugh at some comedy shows that are never even remotely funny. Now I know why. If this guy is a top writer I would hate to see the rest.

The point is that you did not say anything about a TM30 in your original post. You just criticised the 90 day report online process. Yes of course if you have to do a TM30 then thats separate to the 90 day report. You should have done the TM30 as soon as you moved and then the 90 day report would be easy. When I did mine last Monday it took less than 5 minutes and as I said I did it all whilst relaxing on a beach from my phone and had the cheek to call me a troll. Sort yourself out pal and you wont get these problems next time.

You must be using the wrong online system, zero docs are required. You need to apologise for accusing me of trolling

TMN cable channels are fine. However I am not going to renew when my subscription ends as they like Sophon have stopped showing Astro Supersports 1,2 and 3 ie all the English Premier League games. I have just signed up for Wizz IPTV at £75 for a year 1,000's of channels from across the world.

What is wrong with the online system its the easiest way of doing the report. I registered with the system last year and once registered the reports are easy. I did my latest report this week whilst lying on the beach. Input name, passport number, arrival date, extension or visa end date and submitted. I had the approved 90 day slip back in my e mail the next day. All done from my phone. Simple.

Thank you for your troll thread. Because if its not, its the most stupid question ever asked on here.

I dont know why you are worried but I hope this helps. I did a 90 day report online on 25 March 22 and left Thailand on 20 May 22. I received a notification about my 90 day report that I ignored. I returned to Thailand on Oct 6 22 and did my report online last Monday 19 Dec 22. I recived the accepted report the next day on 20 Dec 22 with a note to report again 19 March 23. You will be fine stop worrying

Some poor advice here. Best stick to answering on medical issues. He just needs to apply for 60 days to visit family and get a re entry permit before he departs. Or apply for the extension and get a re entry permit for the 30 day under consideration period for if he leaves.

Welcome to how it works in Thailand. Most of the info on the websites of the overseas consulates is either wrong or incomplete. You also need to understand that the overseas consulates that issue the visa is under the duristriction of the Thai Ministery of Foreign Affairs whereas Thai immigration is a totally different entity under the Thai immigration police. Those of us who live or travel to Thailand regularly know this. Its not your fault for not knowing this but you need to stop trying to justify your point. Even if its correct. It is what it is, just get on with it. Dont stress there will be more challanging circumstances that dont make any sense when you get here.

My extension stamp via Jomtien is exactly as it was when I was doing it myself, now via an agent. Granted my agent puts 800k in and out of my account within 15 mins. There is no forging of docs only photcopying of the 800k in the bank book. Its all above board and the are many agents doing it in Pattaya. The banks are even geared up for it. Various agents have arrangements with particular bank branches. Just see the queue outside the Bangkok Bank on Jomtien 2nd road. The branch was opened here because its around the corner from immigration. The office runs on agents doing extensions for people. They go in via the side entrance and walk right up to the desk and give the IO the docs. Its a well oiled machine. I agree any extensions obtained away from the area from somewhere up north are dodgy. If you think this is going to stop then you are mistaken. 50% of expats or more would leave if this was stopped.

Photocopies of visa, arrival stamp and passport ID page along with a completed TM7 form and 1900 baht are normally required for an extension

The agent does not forge any documents where did you get that from. They do provide the 800k funds agreed and the head officer in immigration agrees to waive the time the funds needs to be in your account. His signature and the extension stamp are all perfectly legal.

That I agree with

What do you consider an "illegal extension"? I have an extension like many via an agent and it is perfectly legal.

You are so naive. To get an extension of any kind, even a 1 year extension of stay. You need paper copies of previous visa, entry stamp, copy of previous extension. Its always been like that, surprised you dont know.

The rescuers gave him ammonia to sniff to clear his head and escorted him off the road. They then helped him get back on the motorbike to continue his journey to his place of residence.

Uploading from an android is simple I dont see how aj iphone would differ. Just save docs in correct upload format and size and upload. Easy.

Its easy to unknowingly download a PDF file. For example if you are searching for something on google and click on a site this is sometimes a direct link to a PDF file instead. That will in turn be downloaded into your files. This has happened to me many times. Check your browsing history and see if this is what you have done. I doubt if its anything suspicious, just something you have done.

Thats funny. Do you know you are calling one if the most knowlegable people on here and is also a moderator a troll. Your topic is a good reading car crash.

No I think he means that if something happens to her, then there will be no one to take care of him. Dont forget he doesnt want to drive because of a heart issue. My comment was in semi jest actually but as you took it to be a serious comment I answered accordingly.

How selfish is that?

Your post makes no sense. You said "Cockney Chav" which I presume are speaking with a London accent and Chav which which is someone who is dressed in a particular manner ie sportswear or Burberry shirt. As they were shirtless how did you identify them as Chavs? I obviously identify with your stereotyping but be careful it could come back to bite you.

Thats funny what a silly statement. This is nothing to do with agent fees for a visa
