Ninety day reporting is not required until after the 31st.

They also might of considered your extension as a the first application that resets the 90 day report date.

The immigration act only states 90 day reporting is required for those on a temporary permit to stay.

Thank you uncle Joe ????

Today I went to Mtt report 90 days.  I was came in BKK from March as visitor and under Amnesty stayed until now.  The io said I don't need to report 90 days until I got visa in November.  My extension was under consideration and need to report back to mtt for final stamp in November.  I am wondering the 90 days reporting is necessary for visitor or not.  Thanks! 

I have tried to extend of my stay in September at mtt, the io has rejected my application as I did not have embassy letter.  Wondering if immigration still insist us to show the embassy letter for the extension application in this month.  

Hello guys, would like to ask anyone success to apply for extension without embassy letter for this round?  Thanks!

For the love of god why? Anyways. On to getting the real visa now.

You have embassy letter for the application or not?  Thanks! 

You have embassy letter for the application or not?  Thanks! 

We are holding Hong Kong special administration region passport, now is under China. 

China is not giving letters.  I will go to mtt tomorrow to apply extension though. 

I have went to China Embassy this morning, they even don't let people go to their office.  The security staff ask a Chinese man to talk with us.  The man said right now China Embassy no more extension letter issuance.  But I still have make booking at mtt tomorrow afternoon to try to extend without embassy letter. 

Thanks for the reply!  I am from Hong Kong hold Hong Kong SAR passport.  I entered Bangkok from Malaysia in early March.  And apply for 30 days extension with embassy letter but under consideration by immigration by the time.  And later on thai government announced tourist amnesty and I stay in Thailand until now.  Don't know I still entitled to apply the normal 30 days extension or not.  

Thanks again! 

I have sent 2 emails to China Embassy at different period to request for the embassy letter for 30 days extension for tourist. But totally no feedback, do you guys think I can still go to immigration try to apply for the extension of staying without embassy letter?  Thank you!

Because immigration know and trust the agent not to report them accepting a 25k bribe (agent gets 5k).

 

By the way, 30k is way beyond the normal price.

Normally 25k for an agent to get your own retirement VISA, no funds or documents required.

Thanks BritManToo

Actually the agent gave me the quote was 60k at the beginning.

There's really no dependent visa. There is a non-o visa that can be issued based upon being a member of the family on a extension based upon retirement that can be issued by a embassy or consulate. There is also a extension of the 90 day entry from that vsa  that can be applied for at immigration.

Immigration will not issue a non immigrant visa (category O) for that type of extension if your are on a retirement extension.

Thanks ubonjoe

That's mean if I want to apply for the non o visa as dependent basis under my husband's retirement visa, I must leave Thailand to apply? As I got reply from an visa agency said that they can apply for me within Thailand for the fee Thb30k. I just wondering why an agency can do so but not allow to do the same by my own.  Thanks again!

A member of your family (spouse or child) can apply for a non-o visa at a embassy or consulate and then an extension of stay based upon you having an extension based upon retirement. There is no maximum age for spouses. For children it it is over the age of 20.

Their extension will be issued to the day your extension expires.

Hi ubonjoe, 

Do you have idea if the dependent visa can be apply in the immigration office in Bangkok?  Thanks a lot for your reply! 

Thanks for your sharing. So I decided not going to return to the immigration office.  As I noticed some case someone got another under consideration stamp and it does not make sense if the government has announced auto extension till end of July why the immigration officer still need anyone to attend again the immigration office.  Why don't they just simply to chop the stamp allow to stay till end of July in order to match with the government announcement.
