Tedly

Hopefully it won't stop, but I'm not doing the monthly deposit method for immigration, I keep the 400,000 in one account for that.

I have an ATM card for the account that my SS goes into, I opened the account about 2 years ago. But I don't have one for the account for immigration, that one I have locked so nothing can come out unless I go into the bank and take it out.

I'm not sure I understand why you can't use an ATM. I have two BB accounts, one for my immigration requirements which I never touch except to make a small deposit when my extension is due, and don't have an ATM card for, and a second account that my social security gets deposited into and I use for expenses, either by direct transfers out or getting cash at an ATM. Is there something I am missing with the law?

I did that once and still have the codes, but when I tried again it said that I needed to confirm my identity with IDme, which is where I ran into the problems registering with that.

I'm in that situation too, I can't get into the website with the new system to log in. I still have an American phone number but my American driver's license which they need a photo of to register with the new system, is expired so that won't work, can't use a passport. Every document they call for are ones I can't produce, it's frustrating, just have to hope I never need to get on the website. I didn't get the "are you still alive" letter yet this year which has me a little concerned as I'm sure I was getting them in June until this year.

Thanks, I'll look into that.

ok, thanks, no genital warts luckily!

I've never heard of aldara 5% cream, would that work on skin tags, I think I need to try to find it somewhere. Thanks for the info. I try to avoid doctors if possible.

Same here.

Thanks, I stand corrected, I turned 21 in 1981, and I grew up in Pennsylvania and remember I could go to New Jersey and buy beer at 18. I guess after I was 21, I didn't pay attention anymore. I learned something new today, so the day was not a waste.

Actually, depends on the state, unless they changed it, some states you can/could buy it at 18

I have been using an agent for my EOS based on marriage, for me, it is worthwhile because there are so many documents needed, and I don't have to spend a whole day at immigration. Or get there and find out I need another document and have to go again. They get an appointment for me, and I go sign everything with my wife and we are out in about 30 minutes. They even go to the amphur and get the updated cor ror 22 or whatever that paper is. If I ever switch to retirement extension maybe I will do it myself since there is less paperwork.

27 is good for me, wife doesn't complain at that, but I think she'd like 26 better.

Bicycling 5 days a week between 35 and 50 km each time, for me it's good for mental fitness as well as physical.

A friend of mine who has tried a lot, loves NL brand, medium/dark roast, he buys them on Lazada.

This has been in my head for a week now.

These cold mornings, I start my ride later, but that messes up my schedule haha, looking forward to warmer mornings.

My "income" is low enough that I don't even have to file a return in America, so with only a little bit of social security and a small withdrawal from my IRA, I'm below the amount to be required to file, so I would think I wouldn't have to file here either but I'm sure someone on here will tell me if I'm wrong

I'll second the quality of food at Route 66 Chiang Mai, I've had lunch there a few times and everything I had was very good. It's a new favorite of mine.

Everything I've gotten from America in the last few months had a tax due when it arrived. least was 30 baht, highest was 600 baht depending on the value.

Cash is all I ever use.

I was an automotive machinist for about 40 years, machining engine parts and rebuilding engines for cars, trucks, tractors, race cars, etc.

I just completed this quiz. My Score 20/100 My Time 169 seconds  

I guess it boils down to how much you trust your wife. I have my car in my wife's name, she has a license but doesn't really drive except for the odd trip to visit a friend in the next village, we live in Chiang Mai but not in town so she will never drive in town. I trust her and she is 10 years younger so she should outlive me and then won't need to change it to her name. Also as mentioned before the ticket will come in her name, it happened once for a red light violation, but I paid it.

It probably won't matter as it seems the people's vote really doesn't mean anything, as we saw in the last election.
