    Sounds like a workable plan. Suggest the last flight out and reenter better of with a land border run. Depends where you would be at that time in Thailand. As for Saigon v PP for me it's a no brainer. Saigon. BTW if you enter visa exempt and applying for extension in Bangkok you would use Laksi immigration (IT mall) and not CW.

    Buy a "rent a flight" Google companies such as "onward ticket.com"

    Lovely experience for your neighbours to front up. Ridiculous requirements that many farang would not tolerate. Good for you that you in a village with friendly neighbors

    What part did you not understand. For the benefit of forum readers what did your last home visit from immigration entail. It would be one positive contribution.
  6. DrJack54
    Post your personal home visit experience to update forum. They vary from simple asking for kick back to just a casual greeting. Also from simple visit to asking for neighbors to be present. Post personal experience to contribute.

    Read this thread and many others regarding option of extension based on marriage vs retirement. If the financial requirements were the same no one would opt for marriage. Hardly rambling. To opt for extension based on marriage given much more paperwork requirements is clearly down to the very minimal financials. Clear enough?

    I'm rich. Sad for your plight. So sounds like visit is every year. No kick back I assume. eg Petrol money. Do you need to pretend some enjoyment of the visit. Offer coffee or whatever. In earlier years photo of husband and wife sitting on bed. Think that not required anymore. Very strange in my life rules.
  9. DrJack54
    Clearly for many it is a huge deal going by posts in the thread and many other threads. IF I was married I would still do extensions based on retirement to avoid nonsense.. I don't accept random folk immigration or otherwise in my house.

    Hope not inappropriate. Have already done couple of posts to champion remarkable guy ubonjoe. I hope at some point in time AseanNow mods or close friends of Joe can do eulogy of his life. Obviously family need to approve. We all wish to acknowledge what a void he has left. Perhaps know bit more about a bloke that helped us all so much.

    You need to file a TM30 at immigration office where you deal with for things such as extensions. Do that prior to applying for any extensions etc. If not applying for extension do nothing
  12. DrJack54
    Depending on immigration office he might not even get past doc check without TM30. Suggest the OP obtains TM30 prior to attending immigration for extension etc.

    Some lovely posts in this thread to a one of a kind. This post bit left field. So just now I wanted to make appointment at CW next week. Couldn't find the appointment link. So looked on AseanNow and this pic was first result in some random thread. How many times have we seen "THANKS JOE"
  14. DrJack54
    You were given a 30 day visa exempt stamp. If you plan to obtain an extension to that stamp you will need to file a TM30.
  15. DrJack54
    In shock. Most of us wondered what was going on with Joe and now this SAD SAD news. Joe was the backbone of AseanNow. Universally liked, respected and a true gentleman. To say will be sadly missed is a ridiculous understatement. Irreplaceable in so many ways. I know Joe had a wife and believe daughter. Thoughts go out to his family and friends. R.I.P

    Some first hand experience in this CM thread. Letter from school recommended
  17. DrJack54
    Which immigration office? If it's long trip and/or busy be aware that 90 day reports can also be done via mail.
  18. DrJack54
    Was not clear from your OP unless I missed something. So all ok to fly to eg Vietnam with infant but cannot do border bounce. Seriously. Your child is not subject to overstay. He/she is exempt. From CM do a border bounce and leave child with trusted friend.
  19. DrJack54
    That's dating back to 2019 when Bangkok airports played funny games You mention baby difficult to travel via land. If you are not located in CM then what are you typing about Where are you located?
  20. DrJack54
    Where are you located? If Bangkok then return flight to Udon Thani and border bounce at Nong Khai would be easy. The road from UT To friendship bridge is straight and flat. It's under 2 hours. Why make easy difficult.
  21. DrJack54
    All applications for extensions based on marriage will be sent to other province for approval. For extensions based on retirement that is not the case.
  22. DrJack54
    There is a 265 page thread with advice. https://aseannow.com/topic/121353-story-of-my-thai-citizenship-application/
  23. DrJack54
    Re-register won't work. Your next report online should be fine. Same thing happened to me at CW when immigration officer decided to help. I told her absolutely not. I will do it myself. 90 day reporting (apart from first one) has nothing to do with extensions. Despite the practice at some offices.
  24. DrJack54
    Is that serious. Only accept cash. Referred to as "under the table"
  25. DrJack54
    Could be an issue. Why does the visa exempt need to be via air. Also how long is "a few months"
