Re-ENTRY permit at Chiang Mai Airport
TheAppletons replied to zenplay's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Re-entry permit desk is located after security to the right of the regular departure immigration lanes. (Do NOT go through the departure immigration before getting your re-entry permit.) You must have a same day boarding pass to access the area. It's open any time there is an international flight departing (since the person processing your re-entry permit will be an immigration officer.) If the desk is temporarily unmanned, simply inform one of the immigration officers that you would like to purchase a re-entry permit and someone will be there shortly to assist you. 1900 thb for single, 3800 thb for multiple. -

TheAppletons replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
THB:USD was 34.26 at 11:00 pm last night....making Kasikorn's forecast roughly 99.3% correct. More accurate than the weather forecast, lol. -

Have you considered purchasing a computer with a "return" button so you can create paragraphs? -
Will Trump’s Economic Policies Lead to Far Reaching Stagflation?
TheAppletons replied to RSD1's topic in Political Soapbox
Is this the fan fiction sub-forum? I'll contribute: If Jupiter falls out of the gravitational pull of the sun and affects the Earth's gravity by 2.5 x 10^-5N/kg, (which is about 0.00025% of Earth's gravity), then will this affect you at all? -

Thai PM Pressured to Dissolve House Over Skyrocketing Power Costs
TheAppletons replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Nonsensical reason to dissolve the House of Representatives. -
This is quite reasonable, price-wise. (My agent is slightly less but has almost zero overhead cost.) The "big name" agencies try to charge double that amount (or more).

Wow, your Dad has paid a lot in annual fees for a card you don't use. Maybe you should give it back to him. -

Thai PM Paetongtarn Joins Forbes' 100 Most Powerful Women List
TheAppletons replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
One wonders in how many other countries would a single school bus fire be considered a "domestic challenge" requiring "effective leadership" by the country's Prime Minister to extinguish said fire. -

Visa exemption VS retirement visa
TheAppletons replied to dani305's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I don't really know the answer to that but - my guess - is that my initial non-O was obtained using an agent in Pattaya and I renewed said non-O using the income method in Chiang Mai, fifteen months later. No one said a word about 800K or 400K. The only months that came into question were the 15 months' of bank statements required for that first renewal (normally 12 months but.....reasons.) -

Visa exemption VS retirement visa
TheAppletons replied to dani305's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
This false information gets repeated on here a lot. I obtained my initial non-O for purposes of retirement using an agent. After that, I switched to the income method - no agent required. Perhaps it depends upon which immigration office one visits but it's certainly not gospel that "once you use an agent, you must keep using an agent." -
I'm certain that Senator Fetterman would be delighted to hear from you.

"Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) said President-elect Trump deserves a pardon in a Thursday appearance on “The View” shortly after President Biden pardoned his son Hunter Biden. “I think that it’s undeniable that the case against Hunter Biden was really politically motivated but I also think it’s true that the trial in New York for Trump was political as well, too,” he told host Joy Behar. “In both cases I think a pardon is appropriate and I really think collectively that America’s confidence in these types of institutions have been damaged by these kinds of cases, and we cannot allow these types of institutions to be weaponized against our political opponents,” he added." https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5025241-fetterman-says-trump-should-be-pardoned-of-new-york-conviction/

I realize you probably mean this as a joke but I've seen the same idea floated in a serious vein. Sort of a "gentlemen's accommodation" between Presidents, which would also serve to remove the distractions of whatever legal proceedings still remain. (Let's face it - Trump is ADHD/OCD enough without having even more shiny objects to divert his attention from carrying out the duties of his office.)

More Wise problems

Correct. I've seen and resisted this suggestion previously but I may just have to make the attempt. Thanks for the reminder that this is an option.
