Thanks to all for helpful advice.

Thank you for quick response. Do the airlines accept this proof of payment as evidence of having a visa when boarding, and is onward travel ticket required? Alternatively, could you enter on a tourist visa, then apply for the Elite from within country, or does it have to be done before entering? Thanks again

Does applicant require a trip to Thai Embassy/Consulate in their home country to get a stamp in passport based on Elite approval documents, or do they arrive in Thailand with the approval forms and get all required stamps upon arrival. Thanks for any clarification!

Thanks for this info. As family dependent member is not on the list that be converted from tourist visa to non-O, not sure how it can be done. Heard from friend who said his agent could not do, so wondering how and where can be done with agent? Any confirmed cases of anyone doing this recently in Chonburi?

If on a tourist visa, would this option of switching to the non-o at immigration be possible for the wife?

It used to be possible to fly out to Hong Kong, KL, etc to get a single entry Non B in order to process WP. With Covid restrictions, HK does not look feasible. Any other locations in the region to do this with minimal hassle and what is the actual timing and process for visa, WP application? Thanks

When transfer existing visa and 12 month extension to new passport, can re-entry stamp from old passport be transferred or used as well? Or is it required to pay for new reentry permit with new passport? Thanks for advice
