You can make an appointment for the 90-day report at MTT. This will save time.

 

Yes, a third-party can file a 90-day report in person on your behalf. Of course they'll need your passport for a few days.

im going to try the agent, im messaging a few places to ask about it thanks

Link for online 90 day report.

Works a treat.

Looks nice... but when I enter in my info (double-triple checked for accuracy, tried a few times), on the first page, I get the error

" For further information regarding The 90-day Notification Report Service, please contact the Immigration Branch Office in your residence area."

Im guessing this may be related to the fact that they say you have to do your "first" 90 day report in person. I did get a visa extension previously, which they said counted as a 90 day report, so I was hoping that meant it was not my "first" 90 day report. ???? I haven't done a 90 day report before, other than in the context of getting a 60 day visa extension which they say "counted as" a 90 day address report.

I just got my one-year non-imm O renewal in my passport a few days ago, but I guess I still have to do the 90 day extension, timed from the recent extension, which is coming up soon.  ===> Confirmed in this thread

I guess I should trek over to MTT and hopefully the online service will work for me after that? From this thread it like that's where it's done.

Or can I get a service to do it for me? It took 4 trips to chaengwattana to get my visa extension sorted out not to mention US embassy, ampur, etc., and I'm really not in the mood for more waiting on line in thai offices.

Does anyone have experience with services that say they can do the 90 day report in person for you (as your agent)?

I see a list of possible places here:

Any tips/experiences appreciated, thank you.

The story behind "farang" is that the first westerner to ever visit Thailand was a person named Frank, pronounced by Thais farang, so ever since then all white westerners are referred to as Frank.

please

Wow thanks everyone for the multiple useful replies. Seat61 looks really helpful. Overnight sleeper to Chiang Mai sounds like a good option.

Looks like Belmond has some things listed for January 2021 but nothing until then, and I doubt those will happen either as they involve foreign countries. The restaurant car to Kanchanaburi could be perfect but they dont seem to have anything currently running ????

I wonder what the Thai equivalent of "basket case" is as that is what US computer shops call it when a customer such as the OP brings in a bunch of parts needing final assembly.

 

OP:  Kidding aside, I suggest first you go to "PCPARTPICKER.COM"  They give you a template where you can enter the the model numbers of your various components and it will tell you which are compatible with your motherboard and CPU and which are not.  Once you have established you have compatible parts, get on YouTube. Many basic tutorials for first time computer builders.   You should also look-up your motherboard and find a wiring diagram.

Unless you find a local computer shop in your neighborhood, I doubt you will find any one willing to take up such a task.

 

 

Thanks for the input. I wound up doing it myself as you suggested! I was quite afraid I was going to fry everything and be left with a smouldering pile of broken electronics but believe it or not I managed to cobble it all together!!  Youtube was key. A lot of the written instructions, I really couldnt figure out exactly what they were saying to do, a video is worth a thousand words for sure.

I called a few shops but as expected they werent interested in assembling a computer unless I was also buying most of the parts from them. I think the assembly service is mostly something they do to bring in hardware sales.

Thanks all for the advice

imo asking the wrong site this question for many folks living here were driven away from their home countries due to their antics with booze - divorce, inability to hold onto a job, mismanagement of earnings and misplacement of priorities all contributed to folks not being able to make it in their native countries. Many came here to keep up the charade of 'living' their life..

and the temples

Anyone have any recommendations in BKK for a service/individual to come to my house (condo rather) and assemble a PC from parts?

I have cobbled together some spare parts from prior computers and bought a few new parts and have enough to build a PC, but I'm bad at it. I didnt buy enough parts from any one place to ask them to put it together for me.

Anyone have a suggestion for a company/service/person who is reliable, who I could hire to come by and put it all together?

Thanks

A Kor Ror is form used to legitimize your parenthood if you were not married to your child's mother when born.

A Amphoe will only do one if you child is 7 or over. If not then you have to get it done through a family court.

There is a long ongoing topic in the family and children forum here, https://forum.thaivisa.com/topic/381917-how-to-gain-parental-rights-as-a-father/

You can get a 60 day extension to visit your child without being the legal father of your child.

 

Thanks for the info and the link to the other forum.

They did give me the 60 days, so now I'm working on getting the stuff together to apply for the year long extension.

I've just found out I need to have something called a KR11 form in order to extend my non-imm O visa based on a Thai child.

Has anyone done this before and have any experience with what is needed to obtain this? I searched the site here and can find only a few references to KR11.

There is actually a dearth of information on the English interwebs about this KR11 thing as far as I can tell, unless my google skills are poor. I didnt know that situation could exist any more. Is it usually called something else? Googling "kr11 thailand", etc., yields almost no relevant info. Maybe it has a much more common name that I dont know yet? Of course searching in thai would probably show more, but I dont read thai.

I will call the amphur and ask what they want but in addition to whatever they might say I wonder if there could be additional requirements that they may make up once you get there, and any experiences/advice from people who have done it before to avoid any pitfalls. It appears to be well understood that what is required to get things done at immigration are the officially required forms, plus whatever additional ideas strike the fancy of the officers on duty the day you go. Is it true of KR11?
 

Thanks -
