  1. Sorry not sure where to post 

     

    but urgent inquiry 

     

    I have a half chinese Australian baby with no citizenship at present as she was born here in Bangkok’ I need to get her back urgently 

     

    she has thai birth etc 

     

    i am waiting on her Australian citizenship to be completed so I can get her Aussie passport. However it is an emergency. 

     

    Can I get her a thai passport due to being born here with two non national  parents 

     

    any help greatly appreciated please 

  2. Hi  all again, 

     

    I have had a little look around but unless I specifically know what I am looking for it makes it a task. 

     

    My partner and I being both non nationals are looking to open a business at the markets. 

     

    I am currently in the process of obtaining my work permit through my employer. My partner is on a tourist but will come onto my visa etc, as a dependant soon. We have been told it is easier for me to open the shop under my name due to having a work permit rather then going down the path of creating a company and her applying for a business visa. 

     

    How would i modify my working permit or do even need too, which allows me full time hours of work at a school but also gives me the clearance needed to open at the market?

     

    Appreciate any direction or information.

     

    Thanks in advance.

    Completely false information. Immigration do not advise Centrelink. 

    The Australian government track your entry and exits from the Country. If your not resident 2 years before state pension age, then you won't receive your pension. The alternative is to return and complete 2 years residency on pension before you Immigrate. You will then receive a reduced pension.

     

    The UK freezes the state pension if you Immigrate to Thailand.

    Thanks for clarifying. I wasn't entirely sure. hence why you never take anything as gospel.

     

    It states under the DSP he can only have a four week portability period. unless misread

  4. My good friend wanted to come over on his disability pension and was told that they are now cracking down on people living abroad living off of their pension. he was told immigration sends notification back to Centrelink or whatever they are called now and you get cut off.

     

    Not sure if this is the same for a aged pension if that's not the case then good news. Australia doesn't want its retired residents enjoying life abroad which amounts to good living here on a aged or disability pension. If its not the case now I'm sure it will be soon enough. Though the UK allows it I heard.

  5. Hello,

     

    I did take a quick look using the search function and I have checked out thai immigration page (from what I can find it only outlines the documents required). I now have in hand all my docs from my employer, contract, letter of offer, along with all other papers. I am currently on a tourist which expires on the 29th this month. I am planning to head out to Lao tomorrow.

     

    I have been told I need to exit Thailand to get changed over onto and re-enter with my newly obtained non b visa is this correct? Or can I simply head to immigration bureau?

     

    Thanks again for the information.

  6. Yeah O.K I see. So, can we legally marry in Thailand and it be recognized here. As we do plan to get married but I wasn't sure if we could both being non nationals. 

     

    When you say extension of stay but not my work permit how does that pan out if we are married? She attaches herself to my 12 month visa to stay which is separate to the working permit i presume?

     

    Thanks for the help as well

  7. Hello all,

     

    Sorry to trouble you with my question but I thought it might speed up my response if someone has been in a similar situation before.

     

    I met my partner who is a Chinese National a while ago. She was on a Business Visa but has now just recently gone onto a tourists for 3 months. I am now a holder of a Working Permit as a teacher. We have tossed up getting her on to another Business Visa as well.

     

    She is just on 8 weeks pregnant as well. What options do I have regarding her being able to stay in the country? Can she attach herself to my Working Permit as a defacto as we are not married or she can only remain on a tourist?

     

    Just curious what options we have available to us.

     

    Appreciate any information in advance!  

  8. The only advantage is Bangkok go tomorrow. Saves me taking a day off work. I checked out thaivisaservice and from what i can see they do not do a run til November now and my current visa expires on the 5th. But it is still an option for me as well during the week. It is also three day trip. My partner is pregnant so do not wish to be away for that long unless needed. 

     

    Just re read it they do a three day trip and one day Ban Laem awesome!

     

    Thanks again Steve. 

  9. Hi all,

     

    I did have a brief look through some of the posts so I apologise in advance for posting an age  old question I am sure!

     

    I was looking into using Bangkok Buddy on Sunday as it seems like an easy and viable option.  I have been recently employed and am waiting for my police clearance to come back before I can transfer onto my Non B visa. So just wondering if there are any better more preferred options? I have already attended Dept for Immigration and had a month granted as well.

     

    Thanks in advance,
