Back on topic, if anyone has any idea on how or when the Retirement Visa people can come back earlier I would appreciate the feedback. Thank you, this is all I was asking from the start.

He's mentioned in some posts how much he dislikes Thailand and wants to leave permanently, yet in others is desperate to get back. Perhaps multiple personality disorder treatment could be his way in?

You are such a fool, hands down, not once have I said that I "dislike Thailand", in FACT I said how mush I like it, get your <deleted> stories sorted. I was bang on with you, complete narcissist!!!! This will be my last reply to you as a you are a waste of energy.

There's a backlog of both Thais and those foreigners who are already eligible to enter Thailand. It's very unlikely that the group of foreigners that can enter will be extended further until that backlog has been cleared up, which is a slow process due to severely limited flights.

 

I don't think approaching the government to speed things up has a realistic chance of success.

 

Well it was a thought that's all and to see what ideas people have, thanks for your response. No harm in trying to find a better way of doing things or a way that can help others.

Anger management might be the OPs ticket to a medical facility here.

Or how to deal idiots may be another choice,.

Tiger, take a chill pill. Several posters have no idea even where you currently are or what your trying to achieve. I have read all your posts and frankly it's hard to join the dots. 

If it's as simple as trying to help retired folk currently not in Thailand then just state so clearly. 

If that is in fact your aim then the answer will be that most likely their permission of stay has expired and they on the list as a tourist.

Mate its easy, really easy. Any ideas how retirement visa holders can, ask, shall we say, the government to come back in with the current people applying now. That's it, doesn't matter if i am on the moon. All people need to know is that I have a retirement visa and its current. I don't need to be interrogated about where I am, where I APPARENTLY work, taxes, families and the rest. All I asked was for suggestions...geezus.

Yes a good suggestion--medical tourist---attitude adjustment gets a 60 day visa on arrival.

Well you will end up with a 10 year visa then.

No need to be so invasive, maybe a tooth repair.

Yeah will look into that haha

At the moment you would only qualify as medical tourist to come back. Assuming you have no wife or kids in Thailand.

Hmmm, maybe I apply for plastic surgery..

He,s retired but working ,no mention of family concerns!

Business, could be anything, not working. NO family in Thailand and not the point I am raising. I raised a very simple question.... its clear cut. I know who can and cant come into the country and under what circumstances.

Do you have any ideas on how a push could help retirees return?? That's the question. 

Just now, Why Me said:

OP, where are you?

Can't really say.

I've seen what you write in this thread and another that you are on now, and you have a very belligerent manner, even after loads of good advice from many people.

So I'd suggest a nicer approach without the "f's and "deleted" might serve you better.

You have no idea, move on. You sure as hell were not one offering "loads of good advise"....

Yes for sure.

Done

Thanks and apologies. 

Can the mods please change the title of this thread by removing the word "Petition"? Thank you

Your simple request has been answered with many different scenarios, none of them good for retirees, so why not just acknowledge that you screwed up by leaving and that your time in Australia is going to be for many more months.. that's the reality.

Also if your retirement extension does run out before travelling back to Thailand, then you will have to start the process again...no ifs or buts about that.

<deleted> people like you........ I am not even in Australia so stop presuming. Well that's got f all to with the post.

If the Oz Ambassador in Bangkok isn,t able to sway Thai authorities,and he is doing a great job for all Ozzie’s to both get out of and in to Thailand, no chance of any lobby group having success. Returning Thais must take priority and it’s way too early to relax covid precautions against incoming visitors. What possible case could you make in your defence?

I don't know what case i could make, that's why I am asking here. 

Just now, lopburi3 said:

Understand your concern, even many Thai have not been able to return yet, but petition request is not really allowed by forum rules.

 

Thanks. So forget the petition. Anyone have any ideas on any other way to do it? 

3 minutes ago, DrJack54 said:

Pretty much makes zero sense. So your currently in Thailand? 

"Under my retirement visa" ? What exactly do you have....guessing annual extension based on retirement to non O or non O-A.

Then you want petition for what? To be able to exit Thailand and then return? 

Really 0 sense how????? Forget it, unreal.

Not understand--you say you live in Thailand, but need to get back!!!

So which is it--you are here or you're not.

Also there is absolutely nothing people on this forum, or any foreigners/expats in Thailand that can influence the Government on these matters.

Even with the apparent opening up of the air border to people with Marriage/family extensions, the restrictions associated with this exercise will probably take months to achieve, which leaves retirees many months away from being able to travel to Thailand.

I had to leave the country for business related issues, now I cant get back. Not that its relevant to this thread. I live there in Thailand. Well you obviously have no recommendations so thanks for your post. We can hypothesize all we want, I am not looking or asking that we do that. The rest of the work is doing that every second of the day.
