Don't assume that. Have 500baht on hand for 1 day overstay

He may have had a ME marriage. That visa allows for 90 day stay and then you need exit Thailand and reenter. Not possible since covid with borders closed. He had option to obtain 12 month extension however that requires financials. Money in bank for couple of months would have been best option. Instead used extension to visit wife and several covid extensions.

Maybe I'm too harsh. The ME marriage that many married guys obtain from Savannakhet is a cosy one year visa and if married I would most likely use them. Since covid it's been widely advised that a 12 month extension is available. Some can not muster the 400k for a few months. Which they can they use to live off after extentions granted. Bit sad in my book. Married guys have it so easy and yet some struggle.

You can do either. Walkin is ok and appointment. FWIW .. appointment works a treat. Can't imagine why anyone would do a walk in, however no problem.

Which immigration office?. You can at CW now. Previously only for extensions retirement.

What do you mean? He didn't have 400k to place in bank for few months but can however obtain extension to visit wife and "several covid extensions".

Obviously my online receipt date for new report is earlier than the post receipt that will come couple of weeks after my report date April 25. I intend to try online for next report according to my receipt and if successful just forget about my post report..

Mueang Thong Thani immigration closed 18th. Some of previous things done there are back to CW, some to Icon square Laski

@sometimewoodworker... Again your on the money. Just went to my Thai hardware and he sold be pic below. Will clean cabinets and then proceed. Thankyou.

I suggested METV along with bit of time in nearby country (eg Vietnam) and even visa exempt border entries and he could easily stay in Thailand over next couple of years. Followed by non O retirement and annual extensions.

My condo is weird. I have internet included in my rent. For services such as Netflix I need connect condo wifi to my cell then hotspot cell to TV. Works fine. Very rare for a catch up in movies etc.

Yes PE folk need to do 90 day reports. Also if staying in Thailand for more than a year without exit they would need to attend immigration. It's not same as folk on annual extensions but nonetheless they are required to.

Sad to say it's 12 month old kitchen. Super heavy rain got into that corner not long after install 12 months ago. Anyway a cover up it will be.

Thanks for that. Yes it's usable but most likely new tenant won't use being a single guy. Just need to clean up and make presentable and not a health issue. Edit: just read your added post. Won't be taking it off wall as new tenant moves on April 30. So will need a cover up for time being.

From my earlier post..... "The OP is using Bangkok Bank. Previous reports from folk using that bank indicate that bank statements cannot be done "on the spot"

Yep saw that one. Sorta kicking myself didn't buy it at start of season. However at couple hundred aud still might jump on board. The other option is chat with tune and see what package would include Australia TV Thailand. They have weekend games. Ta.

Rather than start a new topic. This question unrelated to kitchen. So in another town house there was water from big rain in one corner. The cupboard in that corner has brown material. Looks possible ants. Doesn't look like moulding. Keep in mind these couple of pics after I wiped most away. Any ideas and product to use to at very least clean. Ta

True is supplier for our condo and Australia TV has been cut. Guess could buy subscription.

Added note for others. In the form that uj provided link notice there is box for Driving licence and next box is Car and Bike license. Even if someone is obtaining both car and bike licence tick first box (car license). If you tick car & bike they will issue two residence certificates (400b) One is enough (200b)

Seems the OP is late 40,s. PE visa great option for someone younger. There are options to cover next couple of years and then use non O retirement with annual extensions ongoing. Yes requires 800k in bank (easiest method) and 1900baht per extension. Fairly painless. Those with elite visa still need to attend immigration if in Thailand longer than 12 months and 90 reports. PE great option but imo not necessary for someone 48yr.

Hopefully can obtain advice here. Best option to watch AFL games. My condo previously had Australia tv Thailand and I could watch some games. That has ended so... Best option to watch some games? Paid plans or whatever... Obviously Bangkok bars have live games but I'm asking about from home. BTW that's a rented condo in BKK. Thanks for any advice.

I'm thinking ...yes he obtained CE in late Jan however that 60 days would start from end of POS at that time. That could have started mid-late Feb. What surprises me is OP had a non O and obtained 60 to visit wife and then by his words "multiple covid extensions".. Surely would have been more simple to have obtained annual extension.

Most important thing to take is your receipt of 90 day report. Take along your standard photocopies of passport pages. I also took along lease. Wasn't looked at. TM30 bit similar, in the sense that if you have one take it along. Cost is 200b and they mail it to you. Less that 2 weeks. Edit: for the actual TDL, when I did mine I used an agent as it was covid times and was only certain number of que tickets per day. She basically just did paperwork and waited with you through the process. Only mention it as cost was 2000b and imo for some folk not a bad idea

Making an application for extension 1900b that is rejected and given 7 days to exit, just to save few bucks on flight ticket? Crazy idea in my thinking.

If required for immigration you would need to request at your bank. Downloading any online available statement would be useless for immigration.
