Unbelievably quick responses here. Top work everyone has useful info on this. Unbelievable.

Sounds like a fairly small bear

I read the OP post and working on the basis it is genuine I feel for you and I am in a similar position except I have the funds, my partner just is not divorced and we were too busy to solve it and now we need to solve it I feel we are rushing and I don't like rushing anything so I accept our fate and prepare to be seperated. The pros: 6 years in and this is the first real test. Maybe the test is overdue and maybe you and I need to experience  fighting to get what we want. If that means going home and focussing on what needs to be done. It is our only option. Good luck and I hope you find a way. 

I managed to obtain a support letter from FCDO to get a 30 day extension requirement that my local KK immigration insisted on.

I have primed my Mrs that it might not work I am prepared that I may have to leave. I know I will get back by hook or by crook but yes, it's unclear how this will happen but I'm under no illusions it will be like before. What will be, will be.

So on Thursday I will present this support letter and maybe get 30 days. Even though my immigration office stated they do not provide 1 year unmarried parent visa. I am going to advise them I am currently investigating multiple solutions to a long stay visa including education.

My question to my apparent community of experiences good hearted expats.

If I get that extension and your in KK which seems very lacking in terms of opportunity for visa through any parties. What would you do with that 30 day extension?

Just let it run its course and leave?

Bank on a new development in a rapidly changing environment?

Jump to an area with multiple options?

I will take my unofficial still married wife and our son away for a quick break and then I'm ready to go to war and use that 30 days as a platform to get 3 more months.

I do have to return for a month or two but I have no pressing matter that cannot wait.

Give me all you got.

Britman is correct. Do point out that you don't want to see it again and leave it at that, then accept things as they are. If they single out your child after that, change school. Anything else is useless. Of fight and you will reach the same conclusion in 10 - 20 years

You are incorrect I approached my schools director and explained my concerns and he agreed entirely there needs to a process for this and the teacher was too quick to judge him unwell and they should have checked on him during the first 20 minutes before making the judgement.

Kids will cough and get a runny nose with a temperature change or a dry throat. This is not an indication of them being ill if it happens once. If it continues maybe or maybe an allergy but I am pleased my schools director saw it correctly and the teachers are now correctly advised on procedures to undertake prior to admitting children to sickbay.

Problem solved.

Tools to fix problem. Good comms.

If your post is 100% real there are ways to prove it without exposing yourself. If you really were trying to help others this continued debate about authenticity could be distinguished.

You got to state your case via email.

So if I may. What is the reason they are requesting you to be supported by Thai immigration?

Keep off the yaba 

Stay on the smack

Thailand got bigger issues to contend with when this silly episode ends. Thais will have forgotten how to do their jobs.

You cannot expect this nation to just pick up where they left off.

Need to get that RCB and defence sorted quickly or we can forget about chasing Liverpool. How hard can it be to buy a player. 4 RCB's have been mentioned over recent days/weeks and nothing. Also need to get Otamendi out (past his sell-by) and Garcia (wants to leave at the end of the season anyway) which leaves us very understaffed in that position - Stones and Fernandinho. Get it sorted Blues!

Wise words.

Its 60 k a month and I spend it all and more. I know hardly any men married  to Thais. They either have the 800.000k or 60 k a month income. You want to believe retirees are broke but its you who is broke.

Yes 100% correct I'm broke but I still manage better than 95% of retirees. And you.

And I've been saying this for weeks to no end now, the double amnesty thing has been seen and perceived as a "sign of weakness" by the upper inner circles at the Immigration headquarters.

 

As always as foreigners we only see what we want to see from our angle, point of view through the prism of whatever reality we live in. For the Thais however, it appears we would have "abused" their kindness by using these two amnesties as a way to maintain ourselves in the Kingdom (THEIR Kindom, remember?) more than what we should have.

 

The 26th September marks the grand opening of the "farang hunting season" for the immigration, expect to be stopped frequently through the country for a quick passport/visa check (checkpoints anyone?) more than you ever have in the past, post Covid-19 era.

 

Why do you ask? Because in their minds we have effectively abused their trust and misused the double amnesties they have granted us.

 

Or simply put, because THEY CAN.

 

That is one of the sides effects of the Xenophobic rhetorica that is being spun by this "self-elected" government.

 

Thailand is officially going down the drain. Thanks to the Army, I guess.

 

Edit: On a personal level, I'm starting to take peeks here and there to Laos as an alternative destination, afterall let's face it; most of the girls we interact with in the seedy/raunchy areas of the country that are being employed in the nightlife/adult industry (yes, I'm looking at you Pattaya, Koh Samui, Patong, Nana Plaza@BKK etc) are from the Issan region anyways, they speak Lao in their families more than they speak the "Hi so" Thai from Bangkok and they are ethnically speaking closer to their Laotian sisters than they are to their Bangkok "Hi so" compatriots. Same same as they say.

Saying what for weeks and where? 

Case of a wrong handle perhaps.

You got some info to share on Laos besides the girls. Last time I checked it's a no go.

why the attack on Brits ?

 

I'm a retired Brit have Bt60k a month Bt800k in a Thai bank well over 100k GBP at home and I'm not even old enough to get a state pension and I know many that earn more than me

 

as for the people being forced out of Thailand after a long stay during amnesty. I don't get the logic from Thailand and need tourists right now, why deport the ones already here 

 

As for the ones already here, you really don't have much to complain about, furlough in the UK is finishing next month and perhaps for other countries too, get your lazy *** back home and get back to work, Thailand has been good to you for 6 months stop complaining about it.

Because a lot of the Brits are running amok on this site like they are the kings. Fair play you got a bit of change there but by no means worth reporting online. Remote work just became the new normal and thailand would be wise to recognise that and embrace it. Might make them realise retirement visas are chump change.

Ok so that's 2 wins put of 2 for the bindippers.

Have city seriously improved this season. Absolutely no chance. The only thing they might improve is there loss account in terms of PL games lost this season versus last

If bindippers get to 10 wins out of 10 and already they are 20% there. 

This early win against probably the biggest rival this season, is a Huge win and let's not pretend that dodgy defence would have held out. 

City will get in the CL places is 75% certain but rivals for the crown, that ship sailed.
