As has previously been advised, they need to make separate applications though they can be submitted together. if you need any further pointers, you need to provide more details before anyone can offer any meaningful advice.

You need to give us a lot more details as to what you’re trying to achieve along with both of your personal circumstances, before anyone can offer any meaningful advice.

The BTS and MRT are operated by different companies, and you cannot buy through tickets. I understand that there are plans for tickets that cover all systems, but I'm pretty though plans have been in discussions for years/ https://www.bts.co.th/eng/routemap.html https://metro.bemplc.co.th/Fare-Calculation

I use this powder, available in most supermarkets at about 35 Baht, certainly hot enough for me.

I think it shows the particular currency you input into the search, it also came up with 28,000 in Euros and US Dollars. However they've changed the advisory again to Sorry, this weekend we can only accept transfers from customers sending a maximum of 28 000 THB. To send more, please return on Monday 3 October.

Sorry, for now we can only accept transfers from customers sending a maximum of 28000GBP.

I’ve just just checked my K+ App, and I can set the limit up 5m Baht for Prompt Pay, assuming I had the funds available.

Likewise, did so recently, and with the name of the company showing in the App I had no concerns that the transfer was going to the correct account, well not too many. Whilst I was in the dealership there was another couple with an enevlope stuffed with 1,000 Baht notes paying for their car, each to their own.

Really sorry to hear about your current issues John. As has been pointed out by the previous poster, the forum you posted your story in isn’t really appropriate, though I’m not really sure what help you’re seeking, you seem to be posting from the US. As suggested, I’ll move your post to the Chiang Mai forum, where maybe you’ll get some support. I wish you well.

This is now showing for a £1,000 transfer Not guaranteed rate For this transfer, the exchange rate isn’t guaranteed — Wise will use the exchange rate at the moment of receiving your money.

You could well be right, but I wonder if they factored in the danger that these cheap exports would earn less harder currencies in return. Imports will of course cost more, like fuels, maybe that was part of the thinking.

I got 42.24 on Thursday 22nd, and was complaining about that. The USD is touching 39 this morning.

The OP is asking for advice reading the initial application from Thailand, not the end of the line process from within the UK, For the avoidance of doubt, the Premium Service for Family Visa applications isn’t currently available within Thailand.

Are you asking about a UK State Pension or a private pension from an employer? If a State Pension, then you've already been given the correct answer, if a private pension from an employer, some will pay to a widow and some will not, even then it depends on what scheme you're in, you'd need to talk to the scheme administrator.

The Priority Service is currently suspended for Family Visas, when they were available I think it was in the region of £500 each for a decision in five working days, or £800 for a next day decision, that's the published price but applicants in Thailand are charged in Baht, even if you pay in the UK, and the cost is higher. The UKVI currently advise that processing is currently taking 24 weeks. https://visa.vfsglobal.com/tha/en/gbr/news/important-changes-to-priority-visa-services-offered-by-ukvi

Yes, @howerdeis spot on, it has to be done in Bangkok. https://register-uktb.iom.int/uktbdp-register/login.jsp

It depends how long you have been in salaried employment in the UK, you seem to be posting from the UK so I'm assuming that's where you're employed. The Financial Requirement document state the following requirements: In respect of salaried employment in the UK (except where paragraph 9 applies) all of the following evidence must be provided: Payslips covering: a period of 6 months prior to the date of application if the person has been employed by their current employer for at least 6 months (and where paragraph 13(b) of this Appendix does not apply); or • any period of salaried employment in the period of 12 months prior to the date of application if the person has been employed by their current employer for less than 6 months (or at least 6 months but the person does not rely on paragraph 13(a) of this Appendix), or in the financial year(s) relied upon by a self-employed person A letter from the employer(s) who issued the payslips at paragraph 2(a) confirming: • the person's employment and gross annual salary • the length of their employment • the period over which they have been or were paid the level of salary relied upon in the application • the type of employment (permanent, fixed-term contract or agency) • Personal bank statements corresponding to the same period(s) as the payslips at paragraph 2(a), showing that the salary has been paid into an account in the name of the person or in the name of the person and their partner jointly • where the person is either a director or employee (or both) of a limited company based in the UK, evidence that the company is not a type specified in paragraph 9(a). This can include the latest Annual Return filed at Companies House In addition to the evidence listed above, paragraph 2A of Appendix FM-SE specifies that P60(s) for the relevant period(s) of employment (if issued) and a signed contract(s) of employment may also be submitted in respect of paid employment in the UK. If they are not submitted, the decision-maker may grant the application if otherwise satisfied that the requirements of Appendix FM-SE relating to that employment are met, or they may ask for the documents to be submitted in accordance with paragraph D of the Appendix. The above is lifted from 1.7_-_Financial_requirement.pdf starting from page 28. The Financial parts regarding salaries are outside of my comfort zone, if you have any specific questions maybe contact @TonyMhe'll have it on the tip of his tongue.

The instructions say the translations should be dated, unlike the English and TB Tests there's no mention of expiry dates for translations. Certifying a translation If you need to certify a translation of a document that’s not written in English or Welsh, ask the translation company to confirm in writing on the translation: that it’s a ‘true and accurate translation of the original document’ the date of the translation the full name and contact details of the translator or a representative of the translation company https://www.gov.uk/certifying-a-document

As you’re talking about Thai Immigration I’ll move your question to a more appropriate forum.

No she doesn’t, as has been correctly pointed out previously Thais can enter their home country even with an expired passport, though that could cause carriers to be twitchy. You’ve already confirmed that she will renew her passport on arrival, very good thinking. I can also confirm that passport renewals here are excellent, my wife renewed her passport in MBK when we visited Bangkok for a long weekend, her new passport was delivered before we got back home. I’ll move your post to the Thailand Forum, though you’ve already got a definitive answer.

We’ve just been driven from Hua Hin to Bangkok, there was a police check point on the Hua Hin by pass and another in Petchaburi, each with at least twenty Police Officers milling around, they were checking that those in cars were wearing seatbelts, motorcyclists, with or without helmets passed at their leisure. Whilst I applaud the officers giving occupants of cars the opportunity to “belt up” whilst waiting in the queue for the check point, I did wonder if it was an effective deterrent, and if they might have been better used elsewhere.

I'm assuming you're talking about the UK State Pension when you refer to a "Government Pension" as opposed to a pension as a former Government employee. Transam has covered everything, but you might also find this helpful State Pension if you retire abroad

Prehaps they could start by appealing for witnesess.

Indeed, by the Cameron/Clegg coalition, the same pair that removed free NHS care for expat pensioners visiting the UK.
