I hope everyone reads the OP and learns from it.  A lot of lessons of what not to do . Retirement extensions are easy and fast if you just follow the rules and stay away from agents.

The answer is not simple or cut and dry/ Several countries have tax treaties that prevents dual taxation or prevents taxation on pensions and more  of those who are retired.

LOS should  be the Land Of Scams. According to a police officer who lives a couple of houses down form me the local police station has been really busy lately with people being victims of on-line and phone scams. Just a few hundred in his district. Most from gangs in China and Cambodia. Some have lost everything.

They can fly hone, try going through China. I hope Thailand doesn't spend one baht on them and make it Russia problem.

Not really new jobs just people going back to work as things re-open. The real problem is inflation.

I've tried some so called plant based meat and it is nasty some was like eating rubber.

propaganda at least or just more bovine deification.  

I think the article is wrong about moderna. According to other govt sources in other news articles the vaccine is in three shipment. 4 million Oct-Dec this years, 1 million Jan 22 and then 5 illil the end of the 1st qtr next year. My hospital is planning on this.

Principal hosp group is doing it based on arability of the vaccine. The first group who had que number who made the cut off get the vaccine Those are in the first group  Those in the first group got an sms on 5 July 21 giving  them 5 days to pay and a link on line to fill out a form and attach a proof of payment/bank transfer. Now they are sending out sms to those who didn't make the first group to  Oct-dec 21 next group early next year.  Wife and I made the cut off.

I mailed it in  without getting the from and it got to PA ISA but unreal mailing time. below it the tracking information. It was sent registered airmail.

Isn't Britain also donating an enormous amount of vaccines to Thailand in the next couple of weeks? 

A token amount of AZ

An ex US Army Captain name Al stole 50,000 baht from me so maybe I should go immigration police.

Got two of those USB  security keys and  it was  a snap to set them up. One primary key and one back up. Been using for about a week now. Very easy and secure. Got them on amazon because cheaper than lazada ,

The US Embassy is right behind.....far, far, far, far behind. So far you can't even see.

Close the US Embassy here...complete waste of money.

American emb sent out the same thing last night.

What approval. Hospitals have been already doing it. I know that for a fact.

Don't know where some you are getting that all those who applied have paid. The Hospital that I use only required payment if the have the vaccine for you if you don't make the cut they tell you that and wait for future instructions if available. By the way the article doesn't say those who applied have paid.

No One is making anyone buy that vaccinia. End of story. 

The wife and I got lucky as we got a low queue number and they gave us 5 days to pay the 3300 Bhatt for two shots or we would lose our queue.  This was with a very large private hospital group who have hospitals all over Thailand. we registered 16 Jun 21 and received the SMS to pay on 5 July 21. My sister in law registered  19 Jun and her SMS on 5 July told her try next time when available.
