  1. Funny enough, we got a message from SB 3 hours ago that everyone on the latest list from the Palace has finished swearing in and all paperwork being prepared to send to Anutin for signature and then publication.
  2. I wonder if that means Anutin won't release the RG announcement for the completed ones too 😞
  3. Another friend of mine who just started the process last year completed his NIA interview and his documents have been sent to the MOI. I'm still waiting for the RG announcement for mine to be completed. No news from SB on that as of yesterday.
  4. That's because there isn't much movement at the moment on anyone's applications, the queue at MOI for the final interviews is extremely long, and the Palace has only sent one batch of approved applications for Oaths to the SB in more than 1 year
  5. Sure. It was a bit anti-climactic TBH, lol. Went into the SB office, signed two documents, had to bring 6 2x2.5 inch photos with blue background, 1 signed copy of my passport, visa, WP and house reg book. I then went into the small Supervisor's office in the back, they gave me a small Buddha offering tray, had me recite my oath, took a couple of photos for their records and sent me on my way. Took all of 5 min 😂
  6. Enough of this depressing news. Let me provide some surprisingly good news. After more than 1 year HRM has approved 62 applications that have been sitting at the Palace. Almost all were Chinese, but there were also a few Indians and roughly 7 Westerners. I was sworn in on Monday so now just need to wait for the RG announcement, but as it's under a new government, SB could not give me an estimate on when it will be published. So close now........ :-)
  7. If you continue to maintain your work permit and visa without interruption for 3 years you may qualify for permanent residency; however, there are many other items you need to pass in order to qualify
  8. I have a very reliable source that has told me candidly that until Thailand can "stabilize" no further applications are going to be approved for the time-being.
  9. My wife has an IB account and transfers money from SCB to it all the time. You have to fill out the BOT authorization once per year with a total estimated amount of how much you will send and declare the reason is for investment. The bank will help with the form processing and you keep the approved letter from BOT so the next time you go it takes all of 5 min. Money arrives in her account in less than 2 hrs
  10. FYI we were told this morning that there are more than 200 applications waiting at the Palace for final signature by HRM. As of next month my paperwork is there for 1 year already ????
  11. Thanks. Guess I should've ready the fine print first >< DOH!
