  1. You obviously should state your immigration office and should also state requirements. Without funds in Thai bank account Agent .can do very little
  2. Jomtien is just one crazy immigration office. Yes I think you are correct currently Jomitien is requiring TM30. Just another crackpot office.
  3. OP, make an appointment (works well) You may/will require a screenshot of TM30 and basic copies of pp pages. Which immigration office?
  4. If you only wish to stay a month or two then visa exempt entry (it's not visa on arrival) would be an option. The 30 day stamp can be extended by 30 days at immigration 1900b. Not ideal but a fall back option..
  5. Yes that is correct re current ME Visa and will need to make new TM30 when enters on NEW multi entry visa.
  6. Yes sorry....typo You do NOT need to do a new TM30. Be aware some offices are being rogue on this .. CM being one office
  7. You do need to make a new TM30. Also why would you have need to have any dealing with immigration.
  8. OP, you do not need to file a TM30. Which immigration office?
  9. Nothing has changed. Reentry permit at airport is available. I obtained one at DMK 2 Weeks ago. It was busy and everyone was having immigration provide and prepare the TM8 including photo. That service is 200b. I prefer to do the form myself.
  10. https://aseannow.com/topic/1293770-can-you-always-get-a-re-entry-permit-at-phuket-airport/
  11. OP, ignore the reminder. Your 90 day clock was reset when you reentered. That stamp date is day 1.. As for the TM30 it is not required however some immigration offices are not following the rule changes to TM30 made June 2020. Thinking CM is one example. Which immigration office?
  12. Just read through the thread. You have not posted ONE piece of advice. So be constructive and make a suggestion for this group of folk. Apparently 2 recently reentered (guessing visa exempt) So go for it post a suggestion to assist. Doubt that will occur.
  13. They seemed prepared to explore ED visa which to me indicates prepared to look at options. Right now between rock and hard place. The border bounces would give them up to 4 months to consider next steps. I have you on ignore for good reasons. Serial pest
  14. Some schools can organize an ED visa however not cheap. Questionable volunteer visa came into play during covid. Turned out to be very sus. Since then it's not a good option. So no suggest the group did not stay across issues with non O volunteering
  15. Seems the group did zero planning prior to entering Thailand. So now in awkward situation. They can obtain 2 visa exempt per calendar year via land and each entry provides 30 day stamp and can be extended by 30 days at Thai immigration.
  16. Seems most immigration offices just want to see 12 monthly transfers of 65k + per month. Consistent dates advised. As per usual in Thailand some immigration offices play their own game.
  17. Bump thread as no replies. So OP, cut to the chase. How long do these folk want to stay in Thailand? Thailand offers a METV that can provide up to 9 months stay albeit requires exits from Thailand. However that needs to be obtained in home country or country where person has permanent residence status. Sounds like very poor planning from your friends
  18. You can make appointment for extension at CW. The previous online appointments has been replaced by this site... https://bangkok.immigration.go.th/en/onlineservice-and-publicguide/ The appointment system works a charm at CW. Remember to take hard copy of your confirmation email. CW closes for lunch 12-1pm.. On the lower level there are the banks (SCB no branch at CW) and photocopy stalls. They also do photos 4 snaps for 100b
  19. Yes 2 months. When folk do same path as yourself and obtain the non O in Thailand, that visa gives a 90 day permission of stay. Then you apply for 12 month extension in the last 30 days of that permit with funds having been in bank for 2 months + After your extension is granted you need to maintain 800k minimum for next 3 months. Then can go as low as 400k and back up to 800k prior to next extension. Many opt to maintain 800k all year round in a dedicated bank account for extension purposes
  20. To me seems that you have convinced yourself that the non O-X is best option. I wouldn't take any notice of Sydney information. You have received good advice in the thread however you seem to be deflecting. There are a few threads re this topic. Very few take up this visa and some io at airports seem confused as they are not common. With good reason. If the funds in the bank is an issue then change to income method. Those funds can be used to live in Thailand. No requirement to maintain funds in Thai bank. Alternatively use an agent to obtain your extension each year. At your age insurance will be problematic at best and if possible will be expensive. A lower threshold for insurance is a non O-A. That visa provides up to almost 2 year stay. If your travel pattern is to return to Oz every couple of years that would be an option. Funds remain in Oz Non O-X Silly option imo
  21. CW have been shown to be more flexible on the lease requirement. An explanation that you are currently deciding on long term option for where to sign a lease. Minimum would be to have screenshot of your current condo TM30. In similar threads some have suggested doing a "tear up lease" Pretty sure CW will accept that you are still looking for a suitable condo in Bangkok. Apply for extension as soon as your funds have been seasoned and if there is an issue you will still have time to sort out what the io is requesting.
