I arrived on a 30 day visa exempt permission to stay. American Passport holder. 

My plan is to extend another 30 days at phuket immigration, then 2 weeks or so before that runs out, swap to a single entry Non-O (based on marriage) at the same immigration in Phuket. 

Im wondering if anyone can provide me a detailed list of required documentation needed for both of these operations so that I dont have to make multiple trips, wasting days and bringing my infant with me every time? 

I have everything thats needed, 400K seasoned in my thai bank account, long term rental agreement, marriage cert, etc etc, but for the life of me I can not seem to make any operation at immigration go smoothly and in one trip.

It states photo.

It states you can upload in jpg or png file types. It doesn’t state that it must be a photo. All my documents are scanned PDFs so I just used the screenshot cropping tool. Screenshots are automatically saved as png files, which can be uploaded. 
 

You don’t have to take a phone picture of your documents. 

Maybe go back and ask for a dose of valium or something before going into the MRI

I don't mind the time nor the expense of the quarantine, but is anyone hearing anything to the contrary, regarding the new rules?

Nope. Its very much confirmed that you will need to do 10 days of actual quarantine and I believe 2 covid tests. 

Much of the actual procedure to actually get to Thailand and all the paperwork is identical.

You simply omitted it.

You jumped in on page 7.

Perhaps not, but the overwhelming research and evidence points to the fact that being vaccinated lessens your chances of a serious illness from it, and also will cut the number of deaths quite markedly. 

I have never denied this. Nowhere in any of my posts in this whole thread have I denied this or insinuated otherwise.

That's not necessarily true. Even if Covid-19 becomes endemic - which admittedly it is looking as if it might, then unless the vaccines completely lose all efficacy (absolutely 100% of it) they will still protect a certain percentage of people. 

 

We don't know what percentage efficacy will remain but even if it's only 20%, then a vaccinated person's chances of catching it would be 80%, not 100% - assuming they were exposed in the first place. And hopefully the efficacy will remain higher than that.

You will 100% catch covid at some point in your life. Youll be exposed. It will enter your body. Vaccinated or not, this is 100% going to happen. Even if everyone is vaccinated, this is 100% going to happen. Vaccination is not going to stop this from happening. 

So when people whine and cry and boo hoo and point the finger at people and throw blame, just know its all noise. Use all the masks, hand gel, appeal to emotion, threats, and societal consequences in the world, makes no difference. 

At this point its about protecting yourself with vaccinations and moving on with your life and accepting the fact that this isnt going away and its nobody's fault.

You need to ask yourself why are the vaccinated so concerned about the un-vaxxed.

Maybe google "breakthrough infection".

So what if theres a breakthrough infection. You catching covid at some point in your existence is a 100% given unless you live in a bubble for the rest of your days. 

But you've done all you can do by getting vaccinated and essentially guaranteeing you will get through it without hospitalization or death. 

Most of you need to do the following:

Stop making your fear of covid everyone else's problem. 

Stop thinking you are going to control covid. 

Accept the fact that covid is not going away, you will eventually catch it or be exposed to it. 

No amount of throttling the country(s) economics is going to do any long lasting good. 

Your responsibility is to protect yourself. Nobody else.

The majority of us who are vaccinated are angry at those who won't...mainly for ridiculous and selfish reasons.  Time to end this foolishness.  Time to get tough with the hold outs.  Their decisions have a direct impact on our lives.  So no, it's not up to them.

This is extremism in its purest form.

A majority of us who've gotten the vaccine are hateful and angry towards those who won't get vaccinated for silly reasons.

You shouldn't be hateful nor angry at anyone.

Yet still ,most of the deaths and hospitalizations occur among the unvaccinated.!!

 

Just because more unvaccinated  people might be dying now than in the past is a function of the new strains of covid and not because of the ineffectiveness of the vaccines since , MOST OF THE DEATHS ARE OCCURRING AMONG THE UNVACCINATED. 

And? Are you trying to say that once most people are vaccinated, we can then move on and don’t need to worry about it?

You simply prefer to believe the less qualified and credible sources.

You are literally ignoring the letter from the NIH themselves and accusing others of denying facts. Its actually astounding to watch.

If everyone who could was vaccinated, In most countries things would be back to normal already. 

Yet the facts are different from this assertion. Singapore for example has vaccinated almost 90% of their population yet have more cases (and deaths) now than they've ever had throughout the whole pandemic.

Fauci replied that the NIH “has not ever and does not now fund gain of function research in the Wuhan Institute of Virology.”

And this is a lie. 

NIH Sent a letter admitting to gain of function. Its all right here:

he did

Show me where he admits to gain of function research prior to NIH admitting to gain of function research and ill never bring it up again. 

Just now, ozimoron said:

That is a conspiracy theory not based in fact. The research had been ongoing for years.

Why didn't he say that.

Moving forward, the only real option is to vaccinate everyone and move on.

I am glad you used the words "appear" to lie to Congress, because I had the full article, which I've now deleted somehow!!!

 

And the crux of the matter is that he didn't lie to Congress because any funding which was given, and which had been approved by several other US government departments, was not specifically for "gain of function" research.

 

And the fact that several countries had given money for research into bat viruses, because this laboratory was "specialised" in this research, doesn't mean that they were also promoting "gain of function" research.

 

In fact the whole case hinges on why the funding was provided, and the reasons for it given by Fauci and co, versus a few senators who wish to push the case against Fauci and the funding using a different interpretation.

You guys will defend anything, literally anything, and not feel ridiculous about it at all. 

"Fauci didn't lie because the funding wasn't explicitly for gain of function" 

Yet he did lie... He could have said all this, but he didn't. These people made an active decision to obscure the truth.

Well I am pleased you have never had to spend 24/7 for days on end ventilating people to allow them to breathe, treating the symptoms, medicating them to remain calm, monitoring renal and cardiac function, and secondary infections, lack of  PPE, lack of ventilators, when colleagues are succumbing to infection.
