Had this problem several years ago and it was solved by sending the form via Express Mail.

Thank you!

My brother will visit in October. In years past I read reports of people being denied entry into Thailand because they did not have 20,000 baht or equivalent in another currency in cash. 20,000 baht or U.S. $600 is a lot of cash be carrying around and does not sound like a good idea to me. Is there any news about this? Thank you in advance

Get it right: It is "filthy farangs".

Older people who were vaccinated against smallpox during their childhood in the 1950's (a long time ago!) are reportedly well protected against monkey pox. The odds of encountering somebody who has it is very low, so not to worry.

I would not take such important advice from a bunch of strangers over the internet, even though some have a lot of experience and a great batting record when I can easily contact the Immigration office or Consulate that will process the application. That saves a lot of worry and doubt provided that the advice from Immigration or the Consulate makes sense...

I've been using the Udon Thani Immigration service since they came back to Udon, which was even before they moved into the police station complex. I have never had an problem with them, though I have learned to ask, on my last 90 day report prior to extending that I should ask if there are any changes from the previous years. Yeah, the 100 baht thing is the only bit that keeps them from being ideal from my point of view, but having been to other immigration offices in the years before Immigration came back to Udon I realize that Udon Thani Immigration is far better than most if not all others.
