Does anyone registered in Lamphun do the TM30? If so, where? ta

net = + 10% + 7%?

Any links to hotel buffets for Christmas Day Lunch  ? Google is being rather uncooperative.... Holiday Inn & Meridien are usually good

and it's £62,500 not 63.... 

are they prepared to bend the rules then? The 3 accountants I contacted wouldn't touch it with a bargepole. It didn't help that I had told the IR that I was leaving the UK 11 years ago and they stopped sending me tax returns

Not sure how that fits in with Brexit mind you!

If you have not been paying tax in the UK then you have obviously been paying tax in Thailand where you have been residing. Thailand and the UK have a tax agreement so that you only pay tax in one country no matter which country the earnings originate so as long as you can show the income tax has been paid in Thailand then you can use these earnings as part of the visa application. Obviously if you have not been paying income tax in either country then that is tax evasion and an offense which carries a hefty prison sentence in both countries. If you have been evading tax for 10 years you would be better of not getting in to these undeclared earnings.

It would appear that you are correct. I'm ok at the UK end... didn't realize this end!

Isn't it possible to get an accountant to prepare and submit your accounts in the UK ?

No, because 'my friend' has no UK tax to pay... he'se already tried that. Seems 'my friend' should have been paying tax in Thailand but he didn't know that either and really doesn't want to open up that bag of snakes and implications going back 10+ years!

Hi...

I'm bored with hanging around in Thailand waiting for circumstances to change so that I have the miraculous £63,500 in my bank account.

I want to get back into the UK tax system and can do that I believe from any EU country. I'd like to take my wife and (dual national) daughter to an EU country for maybe a year until I am in the situation where I can complete a UK tax return or have the funds available.  Does anyone know if it's possible for my wife to apply for UK Spouse visa from another EU country or must she apply from Thailand? thanks...

I'm in a similar situation... I'm self employed in the UK but live and do my self employment by computer in Thailand, therefore inelligable to complete a UK tax return! If you can't prove the income with a self assessment and SA302 then the only ways is savings.

Any recent updates on the condition of this road  right now ?

Ditto, any updates?

Chippy would be nice...

Anyone want to buy a house?

just companies I worked for when I was in the UK and France and carried on working for whilst in Thailand... bit like a digital nomad, except I never go anywhere!

Hi

exploring going 'home'

Married to a Thai for 11 years (got married in the UK where we met) lived in Thailand 10.5 years with a 9 year old dual national daughter

I meet the income threshold but am self employed, having been 'used' be 2 companies in the UK (but working remotely) for more than 20 years with no sign of anything changing in the forseeable future

paid in sterling into my UK bank account... would this count as income for applying for a spouse settlement visa ... 

would value any insight. I have a property for sale in the UK that would be sufficient if it sold, but things are a little sluggish over there

and a house to sell here .... also sluggish .... either of which would give me enough to go the savings route, but is it worth the risk to apply based on income when I'm self employed and not even living in the UK so have no tax returns to show...

thanks

ok ... apparently if I go tomorrow they will try to fast track it through the BKK office process...

I quite fancy a year of border runs, will make a change from immigration at least :)

yes, this is where my thinking is at the moment... any financial requirements for a UK issued multi O?

Money wouldn't have been seasoned any earlier and I gather they go by the date of the end of the current extension, not the date you apply for it...

Trip was booked after the seasoning period opened... just bad timing, but there must be a workaround... is it not possible to apply for a multi O in the UK anymore?

60 days isn't enough....

need 62

My current one runs out March 1st... 60 days from then is Apr 30th, but absent period is mid March to May 1st... if I got 60 days from March 2nd that would take me to april 31st, still not enough by one day

60 day extension issued in the UK?

Hi

as per usual it's marriage extension time... but this year I will be out of Thailand when the consideration period matures, 2 weeks before and 4 weeks after...  ready to go this week to do it, but just realized it might be very complicated... Has anyone else here experience of this situation? I shall be applying in Chaing Mai...

bugger

I typed in no dates and just CNX to LHR and the only option got were all 2 stops....

really looking for April next year but that doesn't seem available (maybe it's something to do with my cookies)
