  1. Read the thread header before you post your unnecessary question
  2. That's correct @whereyougo Portability is another issue altogether. You need to stay in Australia(apart from short holidays) for 2 years after returning to Australia to live to gain portability of you pension
  3. You might have heard of someone getting an exception to the 2 year portability rule, very, very unlikely if you read Human Resources rules. If you you are married you get the married pension regardless of your wife's eligibility for the pension. Just let Centrelink know you're single.
  4. This is worth a read regarding portability of the Australian OAP https://www.dss.gov.au/about-the-department/international/policy/portability-of-australian-income-support-payments
  5. Yes, to your last paragraph. Like most people who normally live in Australia, an Australian resident, their pension is portable the day it is granted
  6. Part supplement if living overseas(portable pension). For a married couple $21.60(each) pension supplement living overseas. If living in Australia it would be maximum supplement ie. $57.00(each).
  7. Current OAP rates Only one pension supplement. It is reduced if you live overseas with your portable pension. The married pension is $727.80(each) if living overseas
  8. Can't believe you needed to ask the question if your first language is english. Unbelievable ????
  9. A passport, ticket and a mask is optional. This link has all the requirements to enter Australia, https://www.health.gov.au/health-alerts/covid-19/international-travel
  10. The Flightradar24 playback of the flight has it originating in Stockholm, departure 2120 and arriving Krabi 1502. flight time 11hrs 52mins, delay 9hrs 42mins. Normal routing to avoid Ukraine airspace via the middle east, over central India and via the Bay of Bengal to Krabi. Normal flight profile, initial cruise 37,000 feet, climb to 39,000 feet over Iraq and final cruise of 41,000 feet climb over west coast of India. Don't see a rollercoaster in tracking or altitude. Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, not a dreamline flight with such a massive delay. https://www.flightradar24.com/data/flights/6b663#2e73bc89,
  11. Anti-Drink Driving Foundation chief thanks Thai health minister Anutin for opposing 4am pub opening closing That's fixed. Must have been lost in translation ????
  12. Why do they need to confirm your details at your residence when they have all your details on file from your last extension? Just an unnecessary intrusion into your home for no good reason. I use an agent to bypass all this c@#p from the Immigration police
  13. All the information that they collected at your home visit would have been included in your extension paperwork so why the need for a home visit? Immigration seem to be distrusting of farang who stay in the Kingdom on Non-O visas/extensions, based on retirement/marriage. It is really is a pathetic stay of affairs. I'm using an agent and had no home visit/s to date since engaging an agent to do my 90 day reporting and extensions
  14. Is that a statement of fact, a joke or are you being sarcastic? The range of the new US hypersonic missile is around 1700 miles and the Russian hypersonic missile 1200 miles. The B-21 is not obsolete, far from it
  15. To answer your question. Yes, in Australia they are regulated and licensed
  16. Yeah, they are so lazy some (adults) can't even read or write Thai. Maybe that's a result of the hopeless Thai education system and the non enforcement of school attendance
  17. No. The chinese ordered 2. One to dismantle, so they can reverse engineer it and the other to train each other to fly
  18. You are right. Travelled to Thailand multiple times per year for over 35 years, never been asked if I have cash with me and never carried the minimum cash required. In fact only a few hundred Baht at times
  19. You haven't use an agent obviously as you comments in your post are wrong. My agent had my passport for 2 days, not weeks. The cost is worth it as it saves being stuffed around by immigration, that I've put up with for over 40 years, and have had enough. As you were and continue on with what you do for extensions
  20. The production version being ordered has retractable gear. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eviation_Alice
  21. Is that quote in english? Not sure what you are trying to tell me regarding 'your' immigration office
