Was thinking about having my gf start a business maybe. That will be registered by the same name. Won't be looked in? I assume that even though it's much easier in the long run, I probably still have to give them the same amount of paperwork if not more. I'd like to do it the honest way, but not aure if they'll make the WP thing a problem???? They mostly don't, because, if I remember it right, they make less than 120,000 per year and therefore don't have to file taxes on that. Same here, but well... Lately you are seeing more and more about foreigners taking work away from Thai people and them stressing that you only may work the job that's in your WP. I really love Thailand, but sometimes immigration gives me unnecessary headaches. ????????

I understand, but if I ever want to get PR, they will need to see 2 or 3 years of what's happening with my bank. The big question is, will they complain about it? And if I make enough money to reach the yearly amount which forces me to provide my info for tax, won't I get in trouble when they see that it's not noted in my work permit? (please note that the current amount is still low, but with a bit of effort, it'll be an easy way to make a good amount of money, so I'll be sure if it will be possible, tricky or just not possible) I do not know any teacher who doesn't teach extra classes after school. Some even teach the children of police or someone at immigration lol. So, somehow it seems to be allowed, but like always in Thailand, the answers are either 'yes, but...', 'no, but....' or 'technically...'.

Would you mind to DM (if that's possible here) about your experience in detail?

Well, I'm actually teaching like this for a while already, but parents rather scan the QR code as that is much more convenient for them. As I'm looking for PR, I wonder if anyone would point it out at immigration. Thai people say it's just a side job and there won't be much trouble unless I make a certain amount per year + what I do can be interpreted as related to my current work as all these students are from my own classes at school, but the usual news of immigration being annoying over everything makes me worry. Thailand is great at making people confused over nothing ???? I will marry my gf somewhere this or next year and have been in Thailand for nearly 10 years. However, I see lots of really vague requirements for the PR based on marriage or family. Do any of you have any information what is needed exactly? I've seen that I need to provide 3 years of my bank information etc. How could I explain money coming in, other than the job that provided me with my work permit? If you have any information what's needed exactly for PR based on family or marriage, please let me know. I'd prefer to know from people having experience going through that process, because then it's a bit more clear than the usual list that you can Google. Nothing that's related to getting things done with immigration, you could google and get right instantly haha.

Hello, Like the title says, am I allowed to teach extra classes after school? I do have a work permit and teach in a private school in Thailand. Parents ask me to teach their kids after school all the time and I was wondering if it's actually allowed. One more question.... If someone makes more and more money with tutoring, at what point should I keep track for tax etc? In the future I'd like to get permanent residency, so I wonder if this will be something they are looking at, going after or causes a problem. Laws and everything here is clear as mud, so I hope someone could provide me with more information here. Thanks in advance
