    Why the confusion? Just because kids can't be fined or banned (or imprisoned!) for overstaying, doesn't mean that they shouldn't get a proper visa/extension. If they are to be schooled in Thailand, most schools (international ones particularly international schools) will expect the child to be legally in Thailand.

    Good to know! So far, apart from the first one after moving, I've had all my online reports approved (eventually!).

    By post it needs to be sent 15 days before.
  4. brewsterbudgen
    And? Will there be an announcement every time the case numbers rise, for the rest of time?
  5. brewsterbudgen
    If they're classed as government offices then, yes.

    This has already been discussed and resolved. Thailand requires a certificate of birth in order to process Thai citizenship. A "Thai birth certificate", however, is a certificate of a birth in Thailand. My son (who is British and not Thai) has one as he was born in Thailand.

    As has been explained. Today, 1 May, is not a government holiday.
  8. brewsterbudgen
    Not for government offices, including Immigration.

    As I say, probably lost in translation or peculiarly Thai!
  10. brewsterbudgen
    Maybe something has been lost in translation, but a "birth certificate" is record from the hospital where the birth took place. What you got for your 3 kids was something different.
  11. brewsterbudgen
    Yes. It's not a holiday for government offices, including Immigration.

    Children are not fined or banned for overstaying, so he can just overstay. When he goes back to Sweden with his Thai dad, his passport will be stamped as overstaying but no fine or ban. He should always enter Thailand on his Thai passport in future!

    A birth certificate shows where you were born. You can only get a Thai birth certificate if you're born in Thailand. However, if your son has a Thai mother he can get a Thai passport. You'll need to use his US birth certificate, translated into Thai, and most likely certified/notarised.

    I suspect Charles III may be the final monarch. William seems to realise times have changed.

    The best person to beat Biden would be Michelle Obama in the Democratic Primary.

    Just be patient. My last report took around 14 days between 'pending' and 'approval'. I didn't get the approval until 10 days after the due date.
  17. brewsterbudgen
    My last online report (Rayong) took about 2 weeks from 'pending' to 'approval'.

    I'm with Lloyds (and have been since 1978) and they have no issue with the fact that I've lived in Thailand since 2005.

    Isn't it risky? If it's discovered that you're defrauding the DWP, couldn't you get your pension terminated and have to repay all the underpayments.

    Hopefully he will remain in jail for his whole life. Thailand has, thankfully, moved on from carrying out executions.

    Barbaric. There is no place for this in the civilised world.
  22. brewsterbudgen
    Good grief, don't tell me that we're going to be forced to wear masks again and schools will be closed? Surely, they've learned from last time? ????
  23. brewsterbudgen
    Strange, they didn't with my wife's recent application. However, she stated clearly in the Notes when she wanted the visa to start and we had tickets showing our arrival date in the UK (even though UKVI advise not buying tickets before the visa is issued).
  24. brewsterbudgen
    I might be wrong, but I have always understood that children who are British By Descent (i.e. through a British parent) cannot pass on their citizenship to their children if born abroad. However, if they move to live in the UK and have children there, their kids will be British.
  25. brewsterbudgen
    Yes, you have to tell them when you want the visa to start.
