She could have just lowered her window a tad and spoken to them.

Send her a message saying you want to give Xxxxx amount of money, I'm sure she'll respond.

There is no IF it's mandatory, most doctors speak English and know what is required, as all Thais need it also, and so would the doctor need one. Can be done in some clinics, or any hospital 50b-300b.

Well IME Immigration call and tell you what time they are coming, so no need to hang around all day, my wife has no relatives, we use direct neighbors and never heard of 2 witnesses being wanted. One time we did use a Witness who lived miles away, they came early and had to wait for me to pick her up.

Still waiting for the OP reply WHAT Immigration Office ????????

Agree but you can still waste an hour at the LTO watching the vid. I would call your LTO to see if you may need an appointment. All the above plus reaction tests. Medical Cert is now needed for everybody, after fatalities caused by known health condition but carried on driving, Heart condition, and epilepsy are two that come to mind.

Oh please stop with the bickering ! Whether you get charged more or not hardly effects the Thai economy nor the Government.

Another reason for me to keep to a Marriage extension, is the money in the bank, I am self funded for hospital treatment, house/car may need repairs, That is why I don't want money locked up that I can't use.

So funny A Thai criticizing Foreign drivers, hilarious.

I have a big flock of Jays and they are always poking around on my 'lawn' they eat those tiny grass hoppers, oh and the dogs biscuits.

While you are pedantically correct, Immigration officers ime always call it a Visa, Extension is just to hard for them to pronounce. One officer apparently asked a friend of mine once, "How do you say Parsa-port in English ? "

As I already pointed out in a previous post.

Sorry about that' I think I meant to answer someone who said they just keep a lot of copies from last time.

Depends some IO want everything dated same day as application. You missed out bank statement and letter.

I can give you the list from Trat it is very extensive IMO but I have never had a problem with it. (on a side note it was Me that got them to do it in English not just Thai) And this is the retirement.

TWO important questions for you. What Immigration office will you use and did you marry in Thailand.

Home visit don't get stuff all money from me, a bottle of cold water that's it. One time one did say we had to pay for the ferry 500b, I simply replied, "I didn't invite you, you wanted to come" never been asked since

What have you got to hide Drjack they don't snoop in cupboards, a quick walk round maybe take some more photos, in and out in 15min, it's inconvenient for my wife too, she has to close her shop one day a year, and for an hour or so for the home visit (at least the house gets a good clean )

I hope you have a good time. try to avoid arriving or leaving on weekends as the queue for the ferry can be quite long, especially if its a long holiday weekend.

Trat also require 4 photos for retirement. (6 for marriage)

The paperwork is easy, but there is a Lot more of it, not slightly more, having said that, first time can be confusing, frustrating and annoying, but once you have done it, then the following years are easy. Most immigration offices have a list of what is required, most offices apply their own rules, follow their list and that's it, gather all paperwork same day, and your application can be done in hours. *Bank statement and bank letter (needed for both retire and marry.) 300b ish 30min max unless the BKB takes days. *Cor2 certificate from any Amphur office to say you are still married 20b Get photos printed of home showing you both, copy of passport pages, wife's ID, visa Photo's. *Off to Immigration and fill out all the forms needed, *Home visit normally for me 7 days after application. a phone call a few hour before. return to immigration on day they put in passport to get final stamp. some will ring if ready before. I have not experienced any changes in 9 years.

Sorry I do not understand, "he applied for an extension which had already expired" Please explain. Hello, Helio........ Goodbyeio

I have had brass valves in my 1000 liter and 2000 liter tanks for 5 years never had to replace them. from memory I had to adapt the the tank fitting of PVC pipe into the tank, using a longer threaded piece into the tank.

38 quid per 'calendar' month about 1650 baht, yep not bad 1000 quid a month for those born at the right time.....nice......don't tell the wife.
