  1. 1. She files for sole custody.

    2. Because her baby has Swedish passport, she gets permanent residency.

    3. With permanent residency social security will provide her with home, furniture, and a check every month.

    4. Swedish courts will give her sole custody, in Sweden the female gets it 99% of the time.

    5. She sends a check to Isssan every month paid by Swedish taxpayers. :)

  2. I know its not Bangkok Immigration Office but I've just came back from the Phuket Town Immigration office and there is a sign in the window saying it is closed on the 6th, 7th & 8th of July so I imagine Bangkok would be the same.

    If your wondering why I got in it was because I needed a vaccination and the guy was happy to open for 30 mins.

    You got vaccination at immigration office? :)

  5. OK, I'll have a go with Question3.

    How old are you, what nationality.

    The most flexible solution for you should be to try and get a multiple entry Non-O.

    With this one you'll have to go to the border every three months and if utilized the right way, you'll get 15 months of stay.

    Friendly consulates that might give you a multiple non-O are Hull, Stuttgart, Amsterdam, Perth.

    For reason on the application state "visiting friends".

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    If you want to stay all year without leaving there are other options.

    If over 50 years you need to show 65.000 baht/month in income or 800.000 in a Thai bank. (or a combination of the two).

    If over 50 you can also apply for a Non-AO visa in your home country.

    Harder to get but gives you a 1 year entrance stamp.

    I guess none of you are Thai nationals so you cannot get an extension of stay based on marriage.

    If not 50 then it comes to getting a Non immigrant visa first.

    Non-B for business or Non-O (other).

    For extension of stay you need.

    1. Work.

    2. Work permit.

    3. Monthly salary of 50.000baht (can vary depending on nationality).

    The spouse can get extension of stay as dependent.
