    Tourism is the second most important sector they have in Thailand and they are killing it with the strong baht. Retirement is another big revenue and they plan to kill it with absurd insurance premiums. Export is dying because of the strong baht. I forecast a recession in Thailand for 2020-2021.

    The insurance is for OA  visa obtained outside the country not extension of stay MANY ppl don.t get that

    How do you guy's resident here keep a Uk bank acct?When my bank, Lloyds found out I wasn't in the UK they closed my acct and other banks I asked said the same, must be resident to open an account. Recently I asked for my govt pension to be paid into my Transferwise  acct in UK, got a reply 2 months later they only pay into recognised banks not the likes of Transferwise .So i'm still stuck with receiving it through Citibank with an internal transfer into Bangkok Bank .

    How did they find out.

    Yeap.  They will give you a copy of the published police order rule basically saying such.  That's the only document they wanted to ensure I got a copy of....one of the several docs they have you sign during the application....they keep the original and give you a copy.   The immigration officer did not "verbally" make a point of it; just gave me a copy of the police order.

    We didn.t need to make  a deposit just statement then go back in 3 months to show u still have money

    The most valuable stolen passports have photos of East or South Asian men or women of average height.  They still have plenty of use going between borders outside the region they were obtained in, and if it's good enough onto a plane to UK, Canada or Australia they can flush it midroute and request asylum.

    Its not just that its the cost and inconvience of getting a new 1

    Get the wife to borrow against the house and go visa agent for your next extension. Buy some time. That 2k you're taking home is almost 80k baht, plus your airfares. It'll vanish quickly in UK and you're chasing again. It will cost nothing like 80k for an agent to get you two more extensions.

     

    I don't know how close you are to 63 but in two years or more you'll get your Government pension and your income will double. I'm 62, I'll get my UK pension at 65.

    My husband was 65 in feb but ad to wait till july for his pension so don.t think u will get yours at 65.good luck hope u do.by the way he should have ad is 3 weeks ago still not got it ????????

    The agent will take care of the 800000 and the 90 day reporting.  You won't have to go to immigration to prove anything. You may have to go there for a photo, but that will be ordered by the agent.

    So does the agent leave the money in the bank each year fir everyone.if not treading a fine line .is this not illegal if u don.t have the money

    A medical diagnosis is needed first. Going off what the son says is a first step but not enough. If its about him blowing through his own money, its up to him. The exception is when he becomes a danger to himself or others. 

    If he spends it all of course he'll have to go back to Britain because he'll not be able to extend his visa.

    Any update on this maybe the son as come over
