    No yellow book. Could not be on mil book bc pathum thani. I live in BKK. Landlord not want or bother get me a yellow book for this condo - understand it's possible. I'd just recommend you visit SSO and get all requirements well before you severe employment

    As I stated No yellow book. I could have gotten a yellow book for MiL home, but I don't live there and so nixed idea as it was a bridge too far not having matching residence, tm30... That probably would have worked. With PR maybe you're allowed in blue book - as you've replied. I think that will be shaky for Thai bureaucrat bc it's non standard. Having said that it should work. As you know, general rule farang cannot be placed in blue book Good luck. **The insurance is absolutely crap. Even my PiL 30b gold card we often just pay cash bc of the hurdles. I would imagine SSO coverage upcountry even more dire than BKK but possibly less wait depending
  3. How utterly random. Ok, what how have you planned for that ??
  4. Funny, when I lived in Pattaya 25 years ago it had that reputation as well. Bangkok is a very good but notoriously expensive hospital. No surprise it spread to Pattaya.

    You MUST own a condo (have yellow book in your name). Rule about 1++ year old now. The insurance is absolutely sh+ and should only be used in dire, expensive emergency. Insane amount of waiting and only worst hospitals I paid in for years only to be shot down. Don't bother. Fing Thailand. ..
  6. If needed to tie up loose ends... What is best method to remain in Thailand after marriage extension is dissolved? 30 60 days What are current requirements for retirement extension? Checklist?? Might someone detail what it would take to convert (CW) if possible and applying fresh after time outside please? Banking well established Checklists appreciated Many thanks
  7. Anyone know of someone / shop that does medical tattoos? This is where they tattoo a scar with ink that matches your skin. The tattoo area is over a scar to minimize the appearance. Thank you
  8. Such a ridiculous petty thing to do from an under average university - even for Thailand I'm sure Hun Sen lost sleep over it
  9. It looks good in hindsight, but only because the powers that be blew up the economy. Absentee landlord nothing but problems. All that inflation since 08 never should have happened
  10. Thanks. My reading tells me to do the same. Wife has visa. No resident visa, GC, never worked US. As for a tax number for her I've always wanted to keep her entirely out of the tax system. If I'm married filing separately it's same tax profile as filing single, divorced, etc not married correct? What is gained by tin if *filing separately*? Thanks
  11. Exactly. A favorite student of mine is working in a boutique wall st brokerage house. Does he want to keep his money in that game or bring it over here for < 1% ?? The interest rates in this country are truly criminal. The banks are absolutely awash money at current rates. Lent out at 5-25%.
  12. We are flying in early June, return from Prague. Not buying tickets now just browsing. For the above flight and month what is best time to purchase? 90 120 days out?
  13. Interesting. My troubleshooting would have probably pinpointed that. Good, well you have your answer. Have a great week
  14. Right I would resolve the face scan thing first and foremost Question isn't whether you can make a one-off transfer to another account or another bank and account. The question is can you make a recurring scheduled transfer. Therefore, I would suggest that you set up a scheduled recurring payment of b50 to another bank instead of GSB. Try b50 over three days. Like that. If popup comes immediately after you send - it's probably on your end. The longer it takes the more possibility it's an issue outside. Finally, if the error message has a code it could be very helpful in troubleshooting.
  15. Yeah, we're slow out of the gate, don't really know what we are doing, constantly change our minds, politics corrupts the effort, but when the dust settles your on the hook for back taxes. I really wish I could afford to take my wife and leave.
