    OP, as stated earlier this is a winner. I'm not familiar with ME non O based on retirement. Have read previously that this is available from Savannakhet but have never read a report confirming that. Of course ME non O based on marriage is very common. As mentioned in earlier post this visa can effectively give a 15 month stay. Can I ask your lotto numbers

    OP, working without work permit is illegal and can't think of anything that you could do in Thailand. If you are a hard worker there are opportunities in places such as Oz. Clearly you have backed yourself into a corner which ain't very smart.

    There were several reports some time back from folk dealing with Jomtien and the request to report back along with notice was hit and miss.
  4. DrJack54
    No offense but it appears an agent may be of assistance. You are obtaining an 12 month extension using funds in the bank method. You mention current permit expires September. At CW you can obtain extension up to 45 days prior to expiry of current permission of stay. You need attend to it asap.
  5. DrJack54
    Don't report back. Your 3 month of balance 800k + after expiration granted will be checked at your next extension. Has always been a nonsense Jomtien requirement
  6. DrJack54
    In hindsight bit of mistake using two accounts. I keep the 800k all year round. There is nothing for immigration officer to scrutinize. Very simple process. You are not the only married guy that ops for extensions based on retirement.
  7. DrJack54
    I use two dedicated bank accounts for extensions retirement. 600k+ in FD account. 200k+ in savings account. Both with same bank. The bank books sit in draw all year and come out for extension application. Zero issues. This is at CW. BTW no bank statements just the bank letter and photocopies of bb pages.
  8. DrJack54
    By a couple of days. Will not cause an issue. Clearly you are going to make a 90 report so by all means make one.
  9. DrJack54
    Your extentions are obtained from immigration office where you live. That seems to be CW. Most questions re agents on AseanNow involve the agent covering financial requirements. However most of those agents also provide "organization service". As a starting point you could chat with @ThaiVisaCentre
  10. DrJack54
    Agents offer this service. You are using your own funds for the extension so it's just organizing the required documents. Should not be too expensive. Best to state the immigration office that you deal with for first hand recommendations.
  11. DrJack54
    Which immigration office? Many folk throughout Thailand use FD account for extension purposes.
  12. DrJack54
    You are exiting Thailand 2 days after your 90 day report date? Then do nothing. Your report date clock will start again when you reenter Thailand.
  13. DrJack54
    Correct. Immigration may require you to provide TM30 to apply for extension. What is your accommodation situation. A hotel/condo should make a TM30 and you can ask for screenshot of that report. You won't require the TM6 for the TM30 as it has been suspended.
  14. DrJack54
    Just bumping your question because zero replies. I'm not familiar with the process you are asking about. You would be aware that you can enter thailand visa exempt and obtain non O marriage in Thailand.
  15. DrJack54
    Seems strange. In any event I would regard it as a win. Is the visa valid for 12 months. Are you sure it's multiple entry.
  16. DrJack54
    OP, Why do you need register your address upon arrival
  17. DrJack54
    Not correct. Depends on the report method that is used. Online, mail or in person.
  18. DrJack54
    What is illegitimate attempt to enter Thailand via air.
  19. DrJack54
    You had the wrong impression. Not saying it never happens that you can arrange a flight the airline agrees to......the norm would be to fly to previous departure location and failing that flown to your passport country. ..
  20. DrJack54
    Should have zero issue if you obtain tourist visa as you outline. Drop application for TV at Saigon consulate AM and pick up next day PM.
  21. DrJack54
    Why not obtain the extension 30 days prior to expiry.
  22. DrJack54
    Is your plan to obtain 12 month extension to non O retirement after arriving in Thailand? You could just travel visa exempt and obtain non O in Thailand..
  23. DrJack54
    Have you obtained standard 30 day extension to visa exempt entry? Edit: just noticed you have had covid extensions so must already had 30 day extension. If have used 60 day extension to visit wife then easiest border bounce for 30 day visa exempt would be an option
  24. DrJack54
    After you enter Thailand with tourist visa you can obtain an extension at immigration office where you are staying. A TM30 may be required and your hotel can provide you with screenshot. The extension requires few basic photocopies of pp. How long do you hope to visit Thailand?
  25. DrJack54
    Just making sure that you are aware of 60 day extension to visit wife. For 90 day reoccurring stays a visa exempt entry 30 days + 60 to visit wife is simple. Be aware that some offices may want you to obtain standard 30 day extension first. Check with you immigration office.
