How is asking you how many thumbs you have an insult? You ignore what you write. I said there aren't enough thumbs to plug the holes. You asked me for proof.

How many thumbs do you have?

You're scared. Don't read this story unless you have a safe space to run.

Only to people like you who refuse to see. Thinking about your statement, I have to disagree. Nature has created so many empty heads, so how do you explain this?

You apologists and obfuscators trying to downplay the criminality of the Bidens do not have enough thumbs to plug the holes.

FBI was given the laptop years ago. They sat on it. If there had been tampering we would have heard about it. Nice try.

Chang Wattana is much more professional than what can be found in Pattaya.

Had I known the amount of ball-busting these c&#$&$s in Immigration would do, I would have used the retirement method. I met the requirements and got my extension, but the time and aggravation weren't worth it. This year I may pay the $300.00 to some agent to deal with it. I could have made 10 x that amount taking care of my USA clients rather than dealing with the rude women at Jomtien Immigration

I bought gold with the other 400k used for the retirement extension. Plus, I only have to put 400k in the bank that day. Once I get the letter, I can remove it. No seasoning.

I did take care of a Thai. Yup.

Is it usually discussed, or is it discussed? You show me where it has been asked before. You asserted it, it's not my job to prove your assertion. Arrive with facts, please.

I ask a fundamental question in this thread Can you stop using an agent?

Expats fit into two categories. The first are those that do their extensions by themselves. They may have some help, but the process is what is described in Thai law. Then some only use agents. Some of them, if not most, don't have the cash to qualify. If someone doesn't have 800,000b and uses an agent who facilitates the amount, it becomes clear that adhering to Thai Law isn't happening. If you are outside Bangkok, you only get approval once your documents are sent to Bangkok for approval. You return 30 days later to get the proper extension stamp on your passport. People who have paid agents could tell us here when you do the agent process and get your passport returned the same day, is there a 30-day under-consideration stamp and the proper extension stamp, or just the yearly extension stamp? Here is the question: You pay a visa agent in 2020 and decide to do it yourself in 2021. Your last stamp is 2020 from Pattaya, and it is a full extension stamp on your passport. You do not have an under-consideration stamp which is a stamp used for the time the documents go to Bangkok for approval. If you do your 2021 extension in Bangkok, they will know you did the last extension using an agent. Are any of you told that you must use an agent for all subsequent extensions?

I'm still waiting for my apology.

Address this. This is from Thai Law. The apology is still necessary.

Agents take care of the letter and account by greasing the palms of the bank managers. You're not getting the full story.

I will wait for the apology but I won't wait too long as I suspect it will never come. A real man would admit that he made a mistake, give a hearty mea culpa and move on.

I know this will be embarrassing for you:

You sure are good at digging in your heels. You're wrong. I'll help you. I am not getting a non-o visa. I have one already. I am extending it. I don't need to show where my money came from. 800,000 in the bank for 3 months. Done. Bank letter only good for a few days. It attests that the money is in my account and for the length of time requireed. Done and dusted. Keep it up and I will seriously make you look very foolish.

Your apology to everyone is going to be HUGE. I told you already. I put in the lump sum. I don't have show where it came from. You're wrong again.

I have bank letters, from Kasikorn affirming the bank balance and that 800,000b has been in the bank for 3 months. Again, you are wrong.

You are wrong. 100 percent.

Never happened to me. They want the bank letter. I put a lump sum in the account, so they don't care about anything monthly.

The bank letter testifying that you have the required amount deposited and for how long it has been deposited. Any bank can do this.

The branch makes no difference. The letter is all that counts.
