I was turned away at Emirates checkin in Bahrain flying to Thailand via Dubai. USA passport had less than 6 months validity. I was aware of that and had planned to renew when I returned to Saudi in a months time.

Emirates staff at the check in desk refused to let me fly.

Great information.  Thanks for the effort and responses.

The phone call from Manila SBU only takes about 10 minutes or so and they just ask questions to verify that it is really you. I was also instructed to fill out and submit an application for a new SS card although I still had the card I was issued some time back in the 1960s.

 

My benefits started within a month or two and for some reason I also received about three months' backdated payments even though I did not request it.

 

This was six years go.

That sounds outstanding ! Thanks 

Thanks for the responses.  It’s what I suspected.  

I’m in Thailand and yes I used the office in PI.  The email I received was from the PI office.  

I applied for US Social Security benefits back in September.  I followed progress on the SS website and everything seemed normal.  I got to the last step and nothing was happening.  I enquired as to further progress on the Help area and a few days later I got an email from them saying they wanted to do a phone interview.  It’s been scheduled for next month.  
 

my question is has anyone else gone through this phone interview. I assume it’s to ensure I’m actually a human and not scamming the system ? 

That's correct. We finally got someone at Toyota to tell us all newer models have a better mapping system.

I guess I need to buy a new car.

I own a 2018 Toyota CH-R with 'Nostra Digital Maps' for GPS. The maps are way out of date. I've asked Toyota and about updates for a while and finally was told Nostra no longer supports this option. The Nostra site wasn't very helpful.

Has anyone experienced this issue and found a solution ?

Please don't tell me to  "just use your phone". 

Thanks

I was refused boarding by Emirates in Bahrain once with a less than 6 months validity passport.

• I SO want to use this service.  Lights and sirens all the way to Patts. Escorts all the way to the Beer Bar at Walking street.

Thanks for the info.

I recently got a new USA Passport and need to get stamps, etc, moved into it by Immigration .

Besides both passports (old and new), copies and letter from Embassy, what else is required by Immigration to complete this task ? Is there a form to complete ?

Thanks

2 x AZ Medpark Bangkok. All done

Cops globally are all the same. This could happen anywhere.

we have had over 40 cases in ours.

Free Beer will always be the Best Beer

the US Embassy had a PDF file on their website that could be filled in and once presented at the Embassy they'll stamp and sign.  Cost was $50.

I recently obtained the RC from my immigration office (SamutPrakran) after filling in a form, usual passport copies and 2 photos. I paid 500B and got the RC in about 10 mins

the website will fail ala 90 day report

i just got one an hour ago at a small clinic Soi 22 Ramkamhang. Color blindness test, blood pressure. and done. 100 B

thanks so much.

I know this has been posted before but I just can't locate it.

Could someone post or direct me the current form for Proof of Residency to obtain a Thai Drivers License ?

Thanks so much

You have up to one year to renew your DL after it expires, my one expired back in May 2020, just renewed it on 27th Dec, valid till May 2026.

 

yes, Sorry, I neglected to mention that as well.  The guy who gave me the appointment slip said that.

Thanks
