    Why would anyone in Britain care about problems British pensioners have in Thailand?

    I'm sure there have been problems for pensioners retired in other countries, but, I've never read, seen, or heard about them.

    Worth a try I s'pose, but, it's a real long-shot.

    If a piece in the SUN could be linked to loss of "Thai Income" in some way I am sure it would get some attention from the Thai authorities. Something like "Put your retirement plans for Thailand on hold, better check out the Philippines instead, where the time deposit is USD 10,000 and not the USD 24,468 required for Thailand. It does not need to be too factually correct, just interest grabbing!

    Hang Dong road perhaps?

     

    Chill Park opposite going towards Hang Dong Big C, we take ours to a vet/pet shop there usually o a good job but usually busy so booking is necessary.

    Thank you. Is the shop in the Chill Park small complex?

     

    Do you have a phone number to make an appointment by any chance ?

     

    Thank you.

    That's what I thought when we went two weeks ago. Front page was fine, the second page was not correct, I told the officer we had downloaded the previous day then the officer simply asked us to fill in and sign spare correct 2nd page copies he had on the desk to which he added the photos.

    Maybe website updated by now.

    Presumably that site has the TM7 that the rest of Thai Immigration uses and not the Special one that CM IO uses ?

    Going in Wednesday for the Marriage extension.

    All papers to the agent today reviewed with Map required.

    (Map: A specific type and rendering that I left to the agent to

    produce.)

     

    A CM specific TM7 this year required a redo as I relied

    on 2017 form and did not have the current CM specific form.

     

    Also: Bank letter and passbook update done but this year they requested

    a Bank Statement of activity in the account covering a two month period. 

    First time in 14 years for that one.   The details and forms from year to year always seem to have some change.  Most often there will be no published information in this regard.  Heads-up if you are doing this visa process on your own.

     

    Off Topic:   Current visa assist offices pricing for the marriage extension is markedly higher than last year.   Not to mention names, I was quoted 8,500bt, 7,900bt respectively by two of the most popular companies. 

    The old G4 office, now gone from Promenada is now, Best Friend Visa.

    Tip: Check there rate would be my suggestion.   Regards to all.

    Regarding the CM specific TM7.

     

    Would some kind soul please point me at a copy of this "new" form, many thanks.
