Suvarnabhumi airport and phone check
DrJack54 replied to Mika78's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
OP, rare account has been posted. Many replies have gone off track Thread closed -
Interrogation at Suvarnabhumi
DrJack54 replied to Peabody's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
If you marry then she can piggyback on your extensions based on retirement as your dependent. However I never recommend marry for reason to stay in Thailand. -
Interrogation at Suvarnabhumi
DrJack54 replied to Peabody's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Appears current stamp is visa exempt 30 day stamp. She can apply for 30 day extension. Regards your second question the 2 visa exempt entries limit per calendar year is via land border entries. No limit visa exempt entries via air however immigration will suspect working in Thailand for many entries. What status (visa/extension) do you have in Thailand. -
65K Monthly Method for Retirement Visa
DrJack54 replied to SportRider's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Tell her. Not me. At 50 without income letter you have option for funds in bank method. I was eligible for income stream at 55. However did not require that. -
65K Monthly Method for Retirement Visa
DrJack54 replied to SportRider's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
The only answer that assists the OP, is to check with your immigration office. He didn't indicate that in the OP. Being Oz then same as OP (UK) not able to obtain income letter from embassy. I checked with io at CW and she wanted "show pension" Here is post from me in thread from March. "I have read reports that basically state that their immigration office just wanted to see bank statements that the 65k came per month on a consistent date. That's it. Also read many where immigration office insisted on back up info . I can understand that immigration can claim rental income is not a guarantee source of income. In my case just by example (not a brag) . I have several rental properties and super fund (shares) in Oz...I wanted to change to income method. So I changed my super fund set up to monthly income. Referred to "income stream" Didn't need it but was done to be able to show immigration. In ironic twist have decided to use agent ongoing for extensions -
65K Monthly Method for Retirement Visa
DrJack54 replied to SportRider's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Well in actual fact many do. That can be from a variety of sources. Example rental properties, shares etc etc. As I stated earlier some immigration offices are satisfied with monthly transfers of 65k+ (Best idea to transfer on consistent date) Some may want proof of source of income. Pension etc. -
Question on Multiple-Entry Tourist Visa
DrJack54 replied to Cutty Shark's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Each 60 day stamp can obtain 30 day extension. Also if exit and reentry just prior to visa expiry it's possible to obtain almost 9 months. -

DrJack54 replied to SportRider's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Think you will find it depends on the immigration office. Some may accept the 65k+ per month from overseas. Some will require some proof that it comes from some type of pension/income stream. -

What To Do Please.
DrJack54 replied to hughrection's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
He can obtain a 30 day extension to his 30 visa exempt entry or a 60 day extension to visit wife. How long would he like to stay in Thailand. If another 90 days he should obtain the 30 day extension first. -
400k for non-O multiple entry
DrJack54 replied to Nayet's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
My last reply as not interested in your excuse for lack of contribution to own thread.. At a guess you are working online. That works provided not related to Thailand. And NO ongoing setv will not work. Under 50 you could consider PE visa option. At a guess too expensive for digital nomad. BOI perhaps an option -

Tourist visa to stay over 30 days ??
DrJack54 replied to georgegeorgia's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
All agents can do for 12 month extension based on marriage is hand holding. Directing you to required paperwork etc. The Financial requirements are not too difficult. If over 50 and do not meet the financial requirements then an agent will suggest extension based on retirement -

Question on Multiple-Entry Tourist Visa
DrJack54 replied to Cutty Shark's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
OP, correct answers above. The key date to keep eye on is June 10. You should exit and reenter just prior to that date. In doing that you will be stamped in for 60 days. That 60 stamp can also be extended by 30 at immigration office. Hence you read that METV can provide a 9 month stay. Ripper visa. -
Overstayed by 7 months.
DrJack54 replied to eeworldwide's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I don't see this as a similar issue. Sure there have been cases involving medical reasons for overstay also court cases and folk end up on overstay if they didn't obtain extension for court proceedings etc. Lawyers in some situations can be useful but costly. Not really clear about this friend of a friend situation is. One thing is clear (imo) get out of dodge.
