    Yes, we went last Tuesday. We made the mistake of arriving just before 8am. You have your temperature taken when entering the parking lot, sign your name in a book, and get an initial number. This number has nothing to do with your actual queue number to be processed, it's just your place in line to enter the main building. Until then, you are directed to a makeshift tent in the parking lot. There were a few dozens foreigners waiting there when we arrived. The initial documents checks were done in and around that tent, by foreign volunteers (An Indian and a western looking person, no idea why they are there). No tables so our documents were placed on a nearby parking car and checked that way (we were lucky - no wind or rain..). Then once the document are ok and signed, and if there aren't too many people inside the building you are allowed to enter and approach the main desk, where your documents are checked once again, this time by the Thai staff. It took us over 40 minutes just to get into the building. As we later found out, very few people arrived later on and the place was virtually empty when we left, around 12:00. So I recommend not to try to be there when the place opens, just arrive at around 10:00 or later and have a much more relaxed experience.

     

    As for the process inside, they changed the whole layout - when your number is called you don't go and sit in front of the immigration officer's desk anymore, you hand in your documents through a window. Any additional signatures, payment etc are all done through that window. No special requests were made regarding the documents. The officer also handled my 90 days report stamp with no fine due to the amnesty. I didn't have to queue again for that.

    Thanks for that XGM.We cannot come before 8 o"clock this year.Last year,we were there at 7.30, was send back to bank for update bankbook,I did it the day before together with the bankstatement as for 10 years. They needed it now from the same day.When we came back,was send home again for photo nr 3 in the bedroom,always 2 was OK.

    The outstanding amount appeared on my PEA app this morning. Marked red as "overdue". Less than I expected, just slightly more than Februarys bill.

    went to the PEA office in Doi Saket to pay the April bill.The Febr bill was 2065 baht and the April bill was 2826 baht,we had to pay for the April bill 1482 baht.

    The blank page is when a popup message to contact your local office does not come up. I use the back arrow so that it shows the completed page again. F5 or refresh take me back ot the main page.

    The missing message that says to contact you local office means your record could not be found. It can be due to an error when entering one of the required fields. Or an entry prior to 2013 or a new passport since you last entry.

    Thanks for that,next time I will try again.

    That;s when things started to go wrong.  I know you are asking "really that's when they started to go wrong?? . any way , more wrong than usual. 

    Pizza did not want to slide of the wood and on my pizza stone in the 450 F oven

    Anyway after many acrobatics i got the pizza in the oven, 

    My mistake was trying to make it thin crust. 

    It is in the oven now so stay tuned.

     

     

    Try this one for making bread NO kneading,easy and good tasting.

    Has anyone tried microwaving them ?

     

    Might kill the virus but leave the mask intact .

     

    Gardeners who use eggshells in their garden often micro wave them first to kill of bacteria.

     

    I actually have a cloth one which I wash in detol then dry in the sun. When dry the mask still has a little of the detol smell.

     

    And don't forget , masks may not offer much protection to the wearer but they are much better and preventing the spread of the virus to others.

    I put the mask in the microwave to kill the bacteria, 1 min on full capacity.I do the same with the sponge

    for cleaning the dishes.

    If you're still able to do it online (within 7 to 15 days before expiration only), give that a try; otherwise, you'll have to do it in person at any time up to 7 days after the expiration date.

     

    [I would note that once I intentionally mailed by 90-day report 11 days before expiration and had no problem doing so (I did it to make sure the new reporting date was dated a day or two after I was taking a trip out of the country).   It worked for me but may not for you.]

    thanks for that Bob,then I have still 6 days to go to the CM imm office.

    Strangely enough at jomthiem i have never been asked (five times) for bedroom photos, but as already stated big variations at different IOs so best for the opener to make sure what exactly is required at the office he intends on using! 

    this was the 10 th time for the mariage extension and the last 3 years they needed everytime something extra,photo and then copy off all the bankbook pages,update bankbook from the SAME day,I had the letter from day before and yes I was send back to the bank.

    In Chiang Mai a few months ago it was:

       1. Group photo including children if you and your wife have any.

       2. Photo of you and your wife outside of house that includes your house number sign.

       3. Photo of you and your wife inside your house.

    Hope that helps.  Good luck.

    2 month ago I had foto nr 2 and 3 and was send back home for a 3 th picture in the bedroom with the two off us.Here in Chiang Mai.

    I'm familiar with updating the bank book same day but can't the letter be gotten a few days ahead of time at CM?

    I came in at 7.30 for my extension and after it was my turn,was told I had to update my bankbook NOW.

    I had the bankletter from the day before,same as 10 times before.Tried to say I came here at 7.30 and the bank was then closed.Was also told now need 3 pictures one extra in the bedroom with 2 people,which is difficult to do when you are only with 2 people,so had to ask the neighbor.
