Does anyone have any experience with Thai post international money order in US dollars. Sending the money order by mail to the US is there any guarantee if not received or delivered

The phone number for the direct line to social security is 410-965-0160 it is a direct line so you are not put on hold if no one answers you get a recording call back. You have to be persistent it took me over an hour of calling again and again until somebody picked up the phone. The agent told me it can take a few months for the letter to get there and then it take time again for them to scan it into the system. So if you call like I did and let them know you are alive and you tried mailing your form they may not cut your benefits if the letter arrives late the agent told me

Just got off the phone with social security. They didn't receive my first form I sent or they think it wasn't scanned into the computer yet. So they recommended to send it again and made a note on my file that I called. So it may help to call them

I mailed my first form 7162 by regular mail and I got a second notice today that they never received it. What is the best way to mail it

 I regularly do my 90-day reports . online  I left Thailand for a trip then came back on the 26th of September. I got an email saying my 90-day report is due today. They may be counting from my last 90 day report. Do I apply today for the 90 report or do I count 90 days from the day of my recent arrival.

Is it possible to call social security to confirm they received the form still alive or in my case I am going to the US next month can I stop in a social security office to confirm they received it.

Just received my payment it is  quite late. Did they change the payment schedule? I normally receive my payment on the 4th or the 5th of the month

Anyone have any experience what to do if you don't receive your social security payment. Didn't receive my social security payment this month for some reason I don't know and wondering what is the first step to check why

Thank you so much

It is for retirement Visa renewal at changwattana Bangkok. When I go to the website the link to make the appointment is not working

Does anyone know if the online website to book an appointment for visa application is working? I tried to use it but it didn't work for me. Does anyone know the current website

It took a while but I received my SMS and have an appointment on the 21st I'll January

They are allowing Thai and foreigners to register for the third dose from dtac. I registered and they are supposed to send a confirmation SMS within 2 hours but until now have not received it. Has anyone tried registering and succeeded? It is for people who have p received two doses of Astra Zeneca or Sinovac

I am interested in buying a umidigi  A9 pro as it got pretty good reviews and the price is low but I'm not sure they have a service center in Thailand. Does anyone have an experience with this brand of mobile phone?

Actually I asked a very simple question about specs brand and prices of a tablet . I was rather shocked to see the responses. I think most of the people here don't understand the nature of a two to three year old. They have  about a 5 to 10 minutes attention span.. my son spends time on smartphones but most of the time he is at the park on sliders or just playing around..

As many people here explained the nature of education has changed. And the quality of the local education is questionable. The internet on the other hand  is a very valuable source of education for toddlers. 

Looks like some of the people here are stuck in the past or just don't have an understanding of children and the nature of education. On the other hand I see many Thai parents use a smartphone as a babysitter. Just like the TV was a babysitter for us in the past so it's basically up to the parents

I'm looking to buy a tablet for my 3-year-old son. Looking for something that has decent specs and not too expensive. I see some Chinese brands on Lazada but difficult to tell only looking at a picture. Anyone have any experience.

Before we were married my wife applied for a tourist visa two times and was rejected. We are now married with a three-year-old son who is American l and I am retired. She would like to apply for a Taurus Visa again so my son can see my family. Anyone have any suggestions what to focus on and what are her chances of getting a Taurus Visa

 Is it possible to get eyes checked for vision in optical shops or is it necessary to go to see an eye doctor at the hospital. I would like to get a pair of reading glasses as I am having problems reading small print and low light

Yes hospital is the same.as indicated . I am curious why they rolled it back one week.  They may have an adequate supply.

I am looking for a school preferably in the bangkhen bankapi ramintra areas but  would consider other locations

Can anyone recommend a good preschool for a 3 year old boy. I would like a school that has an English program but not too expensive. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

More research suggest that the two vaccines are equally effective against Delta. But many people still have the misunderstanding that Pfizer is better. Originally it was better but for the Delta it may be slightly more effective. And Pfizer is part of the big drug corporation where profits are more important than saving lives. So AstraZeneca may be a better choice

It's 3 floors and interior is very good but have many visible cracks that have been painted over
