  1. Interesting, swissman. So color seems most likely what they want and a bit surprised they accepted only 4 photos. But 4 photos is fine with me, if that's all they require. Maybe 6 is just what people generally think is required. I usually give 5: 2 of house front (close up with number + whole house), bedroom, kitchen, living room. Those 'additional papers' add a bit to the time, but you're right, the appointment system works well. 👍
  2. Yes, you're probably right about the house number's importance, swissman53. 👍 (Sorry, did you mean to say that if they want 'color', you can get copies across the street? You said B/W. Did you mean color?🙂 By the way.....if you did mean to say that you have made B/W copies, and they accept them ok, could you please let me know, swissman? I would really appreciate it.) 🙏 Thanks!
  3. True. Some offices are indeed fairly consistent in their own requirements, which helps, yes. 👍 And of course, re #14.....yes, it's there in B&W....expect the unexpected! 🙂
  4. Send them in the Line app???? Easy peasy!😆 Wow...I wanna move to Buri Ram! Cheers 👍🙏
  5. Agree. Better to do that than not do it, but was just hoping that someone in Korat might reassure me that they'll accept B&W, no problem. To save me some hassle, that's all. But again you're right. Best to go the whole hog if possible. 👍 Cheers 🙏
  6. Well, that's a lot different from that required by Korat IO, I must say. Something I should now feel quite thankful about perhaps, after reading your comments! (You know, I wouldn't mind so much about it all if it was completely standardized and applied the same by each office, consistently.) Thanks for your comments 👍
  7. Yes....that's a very wise suggestion, Bigz! If I can find an old USB that isn't 'problematic' with bugs, that I should have thrown out years ago! 😉 (No, just kidding.....I'll go mad and buy a new little cheapie one! 👍) Thanks Bigz. 🙏
  8. Wow, your local IO is pretty fussy.....glossy?! (Do they need to be framed too?! 😉) Korat IO has always accepted my colour-but-printed copies....until now anyway. But your comments, brianthainess, do make me think that it's at least very possible that Korat might get picky about colour rather than B&W....especially if they are printed on non-glossy A4 standard. Thanks for your reply. 👍
  9. Yes, I agree. 👍 I thought maybe that could be an option, rice555. If they don't accept B&W, then for sure that shop will have the means to produce colour ones if required, as long I remember to have that file with me. 🙂👍 Thanks.
  10. That's a great idea, Mutt, if it's possible. 👍 But from experience I've found that trying that has been really difficult, just getting through. Actually 'impossible', as I never did get through.....though that was a few years ago. I'll give it another try. 🙂👍 Cheers.
  11. I always take colour too, except this year my printer's playing hardball with colour. Seriously clogged print heads, etc. (B&W's fine though for some reason.) But like you say, best not to waste a (long) journey just saving a few baht by not getting a shop to print them off. 👍
  12. Like I said, maybe really dumb question, but does anyone know if Korat/Nakorn Ratchasima Immigration need photos of spouse & house etc (annual marriage extension) to be in colour rather than simple black & white? (In my defence.....and in my experience....each IO can have their own peculiar 'wants and desires'.....some making sense, many not. And they can change their requirements at sadistically random times without notice, bless them. 😉) Comments allowing for unambiguous confirmation one way or the other appreciated. 👍
  13. Thanks a lot for that very clear breakdown of what's what with OA & O re health insurance requirements, Jingthing. I really appreciate it. 👍🙏.
  14. So, an annual retirement extension obtained in Thailand does NOT need health insurance and such an extension obtained outside Thailand does? I'm not disputing what you say. You may be right. But I thought it was the other way round, ie, obtained in Thailand = health insurance required; obtained outside = not required. (I don't actually know the facts of it as I'm on a marriage extension, but may switch to retirement in future, so I would like to know.) 🙂👍
  15. My Epson L210 has been totally reliable and generally first class for about 5/6 years now. About 4000 baht new. When I buy next it'll be a more up to date wifi job, another Epson (L3250...about 5000 baht).
