Oh, wait, my mistake, mine has arrived in the US, sorry, but not in transit yet. That's about right, here's my tracking record...

I mailed mine 4 days after you so maybe tomorrow will be in America 1JUl20. But anyway 2 weeks from Thailand to USA seems like it went suffice not air

Just checked my EMS tracking number on the Form I downloaded. Still sitting at the bangkok BKK airport since 17Jun and hasn;t moved. US postal service shows pre-shippment. This is going to take awhile.

This is the one I use.

I was for renewal on my norton account and ran accross this topic and got some good insightful information and did some reseach and canceled norton and went totaly with windows security. Been using it as my only security along with a good router and had no problems. One thing that I noticed is improved performance with my computers plus faster internet. I use to get internet disconnects with norton which sometimes made on line streaming a problem. Removing norton over a week ago seens to have solved that problem. Perfect internet streaming now.

Plain and simple, retailers in Thailand expect a higher profit margin than those in America.

My IO has been going by that since last Sep. Tried to hand in a TN30 after a 4 day trip to Bangkok and was asked am I living in the sames place / Said yes and was told no need only if I leave thailand do I need to file.

It is not only repatriation flights into the country that people can board at this time.

There are flights transiting through that are allowed to board passengers There are even some that are flying in empty to pick up passengers.

A little bit of false info stating no flights out of the country in that article.

Sure you can book a flight out of Thailand that doesn't mean a flight to your home country. Un;ess yu can book one all the way home it could mean being stuck is some airport in another country.

I didn't say you could change your address "online"...I said you could apply for benefits online.

 

 

 

 

 

This what you wrote

"Or a person could simply change their address onfile with SSA to a US address."

I know the procedures as I have been on SS since I was 65 eight years ago, just didn't want others to get confusing information.

I hope thailand doesn't find out the hard way about Huawei

since when can someone do this changing from an overseas address to a stateside one using thier web site. When I log on that option is not availble to me.

Not to take any chances in this not getting the form was starting to bother me as I haven't read anything official from SSA about no mail out this year. I down loaded the form, filled it out went to the post office paid 883.00 Baht and mailed it EMS. now I'm done with it.

Thanks you for that, is the form you posted the latest version and will SSA accept a printed copy rather than the orginal they send?

It's the same as 2019 that was sent to me but for this year don't know.

Just checked the SSA web site to get the SSA 7162 or see if it had changed from the one I downloaded a couple of years ago and no longer available for download. But search on google will give you sites where you can download.ssa7162ocrsm.pdf

Old news. After this article came out he has changed his mind or it was changed for him. He now supports the use of Active duty military.

and next week someone will release a study that claims it does help but anyway numerous studies out there that claim while not preventing it does help in treatment.

Having gone through this last March using the income method with no embassy letter and reading the personal experience of others here confirms to me the only way if you can is to park  800K baht in the bank and use that method.

Bought first car back in 2011 had the numbered plates in less than 30 days. Just bought a new pick up truck on 29 Feb 2020 and still using red plates. Many calls to the dealer only resulted in lies and broken promises and only after some pressure they admitted they didn't send the paper work and funds until the first of this month. Love the truck but hate the dealer. Sales woman said it was my fault because I paid cash.

I find the assertion odd.  The fact checking tag has only been used in the case of Trump for a few hours.  Too soon, I would think, for a thorough fact check.  Do you have a link for that? Google isn't helping me.

The joke is on twitter. When twitter was fact checked on the fact check by other liberal news outlets like CNN. New York Times and more twitter was wrong.  Trump was right.

I seem to remember having to sign US IRS forms when I opened my accounts here..my guess is you give the permission in those forms for US to access your info.

I did the same. I think it was a W-7 form. Think backs have to report US account holders who have more than $50,000
