I am keen to see Dr. Vichiraporn at her Vichiraporn-Phitsanu Clinic and not at Chiang Mai RAM. Does anyone have details of her clinic please - opening hours, contact details etc? All I can find is location details. Thanks for any help.

indyo - brilliant that worked! Thank you. 🙏 It is now showing the foreigner staying as “Informed”. It also includes the data I entered name, passport number, dates of stay etc. But it has a number of additional fields greyed out e.g. Visa type, TM6 No, Expire Date of Stay, Point of Entry, Relation. There was nowhere to enter this information on the Reporting Stay form. Does it matter that those fiends are blank? Is there any way to update them now?

I am in Prachuap Khiri Khan. The system has the option for “Individuals” which I have registered as. My submitted documents proving ownership of my condo has been approved by Immigration. I just can’t get the system to work. It should automatically pick up my “approved” address or allow me to use the search facility but that is greyed out so I cannot enter anything.

I have set myself up on the new TM30 Reporting System as a foreigner able to report foreigners staying at the condominium I own and added supporting documents. It has been approved by Immigration and clearly shows “approved”. However, when I try to add someone staying at my address it says: Please add “The address to receive foreigners to stay” at Profile Page. That address is clearly shown on my Profile Page. Any ideas?

I had a True SIM for a few years but found the coverage was patchy. I decided to switch to AIS about a year ago. The coverage appears to be much better with AIS.

Yep - absolutely right, my mistake!

You are absolutely right! I got confused with the guy who did the film “Super Size Me”. Documentary filmmaker Morgan Spurlock, an Oscar nominee whose most famous works skewered America’s food industry and who notably ate only at McDonald’s for a month to illustrate the dangers of a fast-food diet. He was 53. Apologies for the confusion.

That book was a great read. Sadly, the author Eric Schlosser passed away earlier this year at the age of 53 with complications from cancer. No idea if his “Super Size Me” film where he ate a McDonald’s only diet for 30 days contributed to his cancer but he gained 25 pounds and suffered from a spike in his cholesterol after 30 days of eating McDonald’s food only. RIP.

A little late response but just discussed this with Immigration. As you say I cannot use the monthly income method for my first extension, as the U.K. embassy don’t do the income letter, even if I can show the 12 x ฿65,000 as monthly International money transfers. For the first extension it has to be ฿800,000 in the bank method.

That is a great idea and exactly what I want to do. I am just not sure whether they will accept a U.K. bank statement for both proof of address and proof of funds. If not, I then have to provide my U.K. driving licence which has a different address to my bank statement. Just trying to avoid any issues.

yes, I understand it would need to show the 65k/month transfers for a year.

Thanks for your feedback. That certainly seems like a good approach. I was considering using the monthly income method when I do my extension in Thailand so not to tie up ฿800,000. I could show the ฿800,000 equivalent in a U.K. bank account but this would have a different address to my U.K. driving licence. Seems like I need to show the ฿800,000 in my Thai bank account to avoid multiple addresses.

I am looking to “kill off” my O-A and have received excellent feedback and advice from this forum to my previous post. I was looking at leaving Thailand without a re-entry permit and re-entering Visa exempt then applying for a Non-Immigrant O and extending on basis of retirement. This latest post got me thinking that I might be better off applying for a Non-Immigrant O via the evisa portal on a visit to the U.K. and then applying for an extension on basis of retirement within Thailand. This approach saves time and avoids the “under consideration” period applying for the Non-Immigrant O within Thailand and the need to make three trips to Immigration. I can just go to Immigration once 30-45 days from expiry of my Non-Immigrant O to get my annual extension on basis of retirement. A few questions regarding the evisa on-line application: Can you submit the same bank statement for both current location and financial evidence? Or if not, provide a U.K. credit card statement under current location and bank statement for the ฿800,000 £ Sterling equivalent both showing the same U.K. address? Can you show ฿800,000 in a Thai bank account Instead of £ Sterling equivalent in a U.K. bank account? The bank statement will show the address I will be staying at in Thailand. My U.K. address is a correspondence address (a street address provided by my on-line mail handling company) not where I will be staying whilst in the U.K. which will be airbnb accommodation. I have a U.K. driving licence but as it was last renewed 8 years ago it has a different address to my U.K. correspondence address. Just a bit concerned about uploading several documents with different U.K. addresses and potentially a Thai address too.

Thanks for that. I recommended them to a friend a while back and they used them successfully. I had forgotten the name of the company so thanks!

Really helpful feedback. Thanks for outlining your experience and the timeline.
