@marquess what company did you use in the end?  I'm looking for double glazing for house near Suvarnabhumi Airport.  Thanks.

The ARC company mentioned in the second post, the link brings you to their website.

A most pernicious tax orginally introduced by William Harcourt to target the rich. Best thing to do is open up an offshore company and place the assets there. (Depending on the value of the said assets)

So you didn't have to use your passport? Which office did you go to.?

Well I suppose money and fame are not enough for some people. The desire to act out paedophilic fantasy is strong in some folk. I wish him all the best in Thai prison, maybe he can get a GoFundMe page?

It's not a pedophilic fantasy, I don't wish to defend the teachers actions; due to the fact that he was in a position of responsibility which he abused. My father married mother at the age of 16. 

Does anyone know of any good double glazing companies around Bangkok? Thanks

Each Amphur office should provide a fund for locals to euthanise these stray and dangerous dogs. 

I know what the status, a source has checked it. The visa has not been issued.

It's a company, and I have a British passport. Yes, it should have been done months ago, but wasn't due to my faith in the agent for having done extentions for me for 5 years without an issue including marriage visas. Along with the constant assurances that it would be done. 

I did go to the company and got no joy and the police have been there too and will be going back again on  31st.

I need to some advise re an ongoing  situation concerning my passport that has been  going on for 11 months. An agent whom I had previously dealt with successfuly for 5 years and whom I returned to after an interval of 4 years who has failed to live up to her promises. A conversion from a non B WP to a non immigrant O marriage has failed to materialise after repeated promises that it is in hand and various excuses about the delay.

To cut a long story short I went to the police just over a month ago and explained the situation and was advised to place a notice on door of the agent's premises laying a out a deadline. When this failed to bring about a result the matter was officialy registered with the police and on a subsequent visit to the agent they set a deadline which is coming up in the next few days.

Can anyone advise on the legal position re dealing with immigration with a police report in hand and what the procedure is to get a replacement passport? Thanks

"He said the agency wants to introduce an identity card for expats, helping to distinguish them from tourists so they will be charged the same price as locals"

 

Don't overcomplicate it, just ask for passport if they must

 

 

I've often shown my pink I.D card, to no avail.

Yeah, I would have it buffed out first *and maybe detailed)  and see where you're at.

 

Getting it shiny will help find any dents and dings as well. 

 

Do you want to change the color? 

 

I'd love to have it British Racing Green, but will stick with the current colour due to expense.

Thanks for the replies, I am in north Bangkok, the paint work is just a little dull from the sun, and there the odd nicks from a few small stones on the bonnet. There is no rust. 

I have a black Honda Civic that I would like to know how much it would cost to have a bare metal respray? Also a non bare metal respray? Any recommendations as to where it can be done? Thanks to all in advance. 

The S8 series was released by Samsung. As usual here Samsung have decided to release the low spec models, so for example the Ultra is only released here in 8GB 128GB when there is a 12GB/256GB and a 512/16GB. I would like to know if it is possible to import one of the higher end models? Second question other than MBK where is a good place to buy a tab?

I will probably have to end up using an agent due to not being able to meet the time requirement.

You want a Non-O Visa (90 days) or a 1 year extension of your permission to stay based upon marriage ?

One year extension based on marriage.

I am coming off a WP in a couple of months, and want to know if I can convert to a non immigrant O marriage visa without leaving the country? Would this be more easily facilitated by an agent and if so does anyone have an approximate figure for such a service? Thanks in advance for replies.

Others who applied recently probably have more up-to-date info but, as far as I know there is externally published guideline for minimum salaries for PR. However, they obviously have some undisclosed internal guidelines and historically we were given to belief at least 80k was required but 100k+ to be safe.   I have never heard of a lower salary hurdle for those married to Thais but, of course, the fees are discounted for those with a Thai spouse, if you are successful.  

I was told on Wednesday that if married to a Thai then it is 30k and has to be steady the 3 years prior. My application was rejected because I had a few months where I did not meet this requirement.  After 21 years I think I have finally given up on this place (married for 20 years too)

Did you find a suitable hospital? 

Yes, I went to Chula Hospital in the end, a petty efficient service; though they used their own form as opposed to the one that I received from immigration. Their form covered all the necessary areas.

Thanks. Any other information you got that could be worth to know? Did they say anything about the application windows this year maybe? 
Thanks for sharing! 

The woman whom I spoke to said that applications could be submitted in December.

Where did you get that information from? 

Went to the PR Division at Chang Wattana last week and the medical form that they handed me has a Covid requirement on it.
