  1. Can Krungsri bank provide a 12 month statement on the spot, as with the bank letter?
  2. I also never got asked for a 12 month statement on my Non O-A extensions in previous years, though looking at my bank book I see it does have interest and tax entries listed for every month since opening the account, in spite of no other activity and not updating the book during the year between extensions. When I had to update it recently for the Non O conversion, the full monthly history was printed with no consolidated entries shown. I have my Non O extension coming in a couple of months, so hopefully this would be accepted in the event of a 12 month statement being required?
  3. UK passport, 15 days visa exemption given.
  4. I flew to Saigon last week, insurance no longer required.
  5. Anyone who worked in the SERPS era was more than likely contracted out of the state scheme, which will change the number of qualifying years required. The Future Pension Centre told me that the number of years for a person to hit maximum could be anything between 35 and 47 years - in my case 38 full years would be needed. The new state pension figures are much easier to calculate, each year buys currently £.5.29 pw (1/35 of £185.15). Pre 2016 amounts depend on how many contracted out years you had, in my case each pre 2016 year bought around £4.73 pw, requiring an extra 3 qualifying years to max things out. Obviously it's worth calculating all the years that can be paid between 2016 and retirement age first and then making up any shortfall from the pre 2016 ones. Class 3 payments are well worth the money, and you got an absolute bargain with the class 2's.
  6. Just reentered on a 45 day visa exempt entry which I will soon convert to a non-o on basis of retirement. I'm trying to complete the TM30 via the app and I'm confused about what visa class to put from the list. Is it TOWV45? Also what to put for expiry date of stay? Thanks.
  7. Do you know if AirAsia at HCMC airport accept a screenshot of an onward flight booking, or do they need a printout?
  8. I'm no Nazi sympathiser, but it does sound like this dog wasn't a Whitey supremacist.
  9. My extension is due late October (CW) but technically I could go and do it now, up to 45 days early. If I were to go before the end of this month would they accept the lower 400k cover? I'm assuming not, and they will go by the actual date of extension in my passport and want to see the new higher amount.
  10. Me as well - I never was able to see the blue in the older passports. Having said that, I'm technically slightly colourblind... ????
  11. Unless he was making a jok...
