On the plus side, SNL won't be using Melissa McCarthy to portray the WH Press Secretary.

This should lower the price of eggs.

I couldn't find any details on this incident, most of the "articles" seem identical. It's not even clear it was a THAI Airways flight, just a When the national carrier is mentioned it is almost always as THAI Airways. And the Taiwan-BKK emergency door incident clearly mentions this was a TG flight, "A harrowing incident occurred on board Thai Airways flight TG637 when a Thai worker returning from Taiwan reportedly became delusional and attempted to open the emergency exit mid-flight"

It looks like Deputy Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai needed some help getting his pole in the hole. "Seal Stop Safe"? Seriously? Infantile at best. And precursor outflows from Thailand.

Seems like they could generate a list daily of those folks who overstayed, and their current location (TM30), push it out to every Imm/RTP officer, and have them check in on 10 or so each day. But I suspect that dealing with the paperwork/logistics/storage would overwhelm the system, so they just do their job once a month in a 'crackdown'.

In cases like this, where does Immigration (physical address) think you live? Did you file a TM27/28 to change your address? Do your 90-day reports reflect your Chiang Mai address? Does your TM30 reflect your Chiang Mai address? I think the retirement extension is extremely safe, but if I had filed a wrongful report (TM47, TM30) it might be less safe.

My best guess is that you can send your renewal package to the USEMB BKK via ThaiPost EMS or DHL. But for the return you still need to purchase the 100 baht ThaiPost Mart 'package'. Step 8: Mail all the items listed above to the U.S. Embassy in Bangkok. You must mail your DS-82 passport renewal package to U.S. Embassy Bangkok per the address below via one of the following couriers (Thailand Post and DHL) or else your package will be rejected. Please ensure that you receive a tracking number from the courier for your mailed package. Do not send packages to the U.S. Consulate Chiang Mai, only the U.S. Embassy Bangkok processes mail-in passport renewals. https://th.usembassy.gov/u-s-citizen-services/passports/instructions-for-ds-82-processing-by-mail-and-online-fee-payment-for-u-s-citizens-residing-in-thailand/

I read the OP's 'idea' as making a 400k/800k-supporting remittance tax-exempt irrespective of tax residency/pre-2024 'savings'. Your strategies are good work-arounds.

I can't see this exemption being allowed. It's a bit like the condo funding. Adding exemptions just for foreigners (parked visa money, condo purchases) seems unlikely.

Once a year I'd pay for a SWIFT transfer. It's $45 at BofA, and 500 baht at BBL THL at the TT rate. AFAIK, you can transfer $9,000 via SWIFT or ACH (domestic), but check with BofA on limits. the $3,500 limit is just for Zelle. Maybe check out Scwab and Fidelity for brokerage/IRA.

I think that $3,500 limit is when using Zelle. I don't think WISE supports/accepts Zelle transfers. You can fund a WISE transfer with a ACH transfer from BofA. You may have to use PLAID. I did. What are you trying to do? Exactly?

Perfect Storm. Ultra Peak Season CNY Free Fare Large luggage Strollers Managing the free fares means handing out cards, which adds a bit to the confusion. I would just open the gates. Takes longer at each stop for folks to get off/on. Should just be this week through Friday.

Shortest meeting ever?
