  1. anyone know, if on an O-A if any 90 day reporting is required? thank you
  2. I've had the O-A's in the past, pre health-insurance, but expired now. So, apply for the health insurance (through which carrier?), 1st?, 3 months in advance of travel, wait for the approval, possibly in a month, then use the approval to apply for the O-A ? Approximately, 2 months before travel? Did you apply for 2 year's of coverage? or just the 1 year ? Since, the O-A with re-entry permit, might be used for 2 years of time in country? About what was the cost of coverage?
  3. hmm, so is there a thread for folks seeking the O-As ? I'm a bit confused as to the sequence of when to apply for the health insurance via Cigna or AXA, and when to apply for the O-A (which require the insurance). Assuming, that I'm going to be allowed get insurance . Do I just guess on the dates I want to start the insurance, something like 2 months ahead of travel? Then waited an undefined period of time for acceptance, then only apply for the O-A after my presumed date of travel and insurance is accepted ? btw, for someone with existing US coverage, any suggestions on which carrier to use for 2 years of acceptable O-A insurance? I guess then there'd be no need to carry "travel insurance" as I usually do.
  4. i realize there are DTV thread, i'm asking my specific question, hoping for someone might have particular information. imo, search tool on this site, is lacking so thanks anyway, it appears ....... k nampik, not married, no
  5. ok, well, I guess it is as I thought, so for a DTV say from los angelas consulate, can I get some paid in advance certificate from a thai language school for 1 month, as sufficient to visit for 6 months? or must I show paid for 6 months for the 1st entry , also how far in advance to attempt a DTV , must I show the flights when applying? perhaps I could buy a flight with a return change allowed, as would not know if the DTV will be successful? PS: is it routine to wire transfer from BBL back to the US, if I do the non-O with EOS?
  6. I'm considering another long stay, 6 mo, instead of 3, but don't really want to do any border runs. Are the options Non-O with EOS and DTV or is there some other way ? if I were to do the DTV must can I join a Thai School for just 1 month, or would it require > 1 month if the being stamped in for 6 months? I have a Thai bank account, but hesitate to fund it for the 800k , esp if not committing to EOS indefintely , eg getting the money back out of the Bangkok Bank / Country cheers , KT

  12. never underestimate the democrats ability to ruin things for themselves (their donors). from the party that gave you the Clintons and the 2016 election
  13. really, I've had neck pain for 6 months, is not enough to begin to say anything. so, as often happens in this channel, not sure the point
  14. I believe most Adult-onset DM2 is related to insulin resistance ; whereby the receptor cell for insulin are "worn-out" , I'm guessing this isn't "curable" . We were taught, DM2 is really a cardiovascular problem or lets say multi-system ; 7-11 doesn't help.
  15. Can't happen soon enough... NewsWire @NewsWire_US 5m Trump speaking in New Jersey: "You're all going to be thrown into a communist system. You will be thrown into a system where everybody gets health care."
  16. could always be worse, consider american hero, Billy Graham https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1823658089611980800/pu/vid/avc1/1280x720/Y3DMdBdpoK0dN-Kr.mp4?tag=12 and what he wanted tricky dick to do to Vietnam , war is the real disgrace to humanity, bombing women and children for jewish supremacy etc
  17. The expert on the donald was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayne_Barrett and his village voice writings and books. Looking at his life on the whole, he has survived some near bankruptcy; he has had a succession of sexy wifes; he gets to play a lot of golf on his own golf courses; esp when he was younger, he was an icon to many of successful businessman, and still is a celebrity; I can also recommend Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman, this pretty much explains the American Zeitgeist, of which donald embodies, esp for someone from Queens.
  18. Did you know Uzbekistan won the olympics? If adjusted by GDP (minimizing wealth gap impacting attaining Olympic medals) Uzbekistan scored the most medals, followed by Hungary, Kenya, New Zealand and Ukraine with China and the US in 20 and 21st place. sbnation.com/2024/8/8/242154… toxic nationalism anyway, especially with a genocide going on https://www.sbnation.com/2024/8/8/24215406/2024-olympic-medal-count-ranked-gdp-money

  20. ok, and must the 1st entry be within a certain number of days? For example, using Sept 1 as it being issued, "enter by" Dec 1st or is it unlike other visas ?
  21. if one applied today, and was approved say sept 1 , when is the deadline for 1st entry into Thailand? how many months?
  22. what did you find "good" about it? I supposed they meant "ask" here, "When in doubt, as for an opinion from the insurer claims manager. " I might some more suggestions on how to use https://www.aoc-insurancebroker.com/International-Health-Insurance-Comparison or should one use this one? https://www.aoc-insurancebroker.com/Private-Health-Insurance-Asia or in general any hints/ use cases thanks
  23. typically, for a DTV, if one applied today, what is the validity if approved, and/or make 1st entry by what date? is it 5 years from the entry or more likely 5 years from approval date, no matter when 1st entry is?
  24. did you find an answer, I too am interested. esp now with the DTVs, btw does one need a 2nd proof of ongoing business /education or just the initial one with a letter from a school?
  25. whats the difference between australian men and new zealand men ? asking for a friend
