Anyone done their address reporting at Bangkok/Chaeng Wattana since 1 Aug?

If so, did they require all the extra paperwork mentioned in the original post; or just the usual TM-47, receipt from last reporting, and passport (i.e., not a copy of the passport...they just wanted to look at it).

i reported tuesday to chaeng wattana and they didn't ask for anything new (thank god) .

i did see one young dude who i think was sent out to make copies (but i'm not sure) .

could it depend what type of visa / stay ur on (i'm on a retirement) . ?

i may have to stay a couple of years in Sianokville Cambodia.

what did u do to get that 2 year stretch ?

yeah , thailand's the bomb .

$3,000 a month should be more than enough . i know a guy who does it on less than 2/3s of that living in the heart of the farang ghetto .

live frugally (w/ ur means) and rent , never buy . be ready to leave at a moment's notice .

the visa thing sucks but , u c, that's the uncertainty ; the locals DON'T really want us here .

w/ $3,000 available a month , i'd probably do the 3 months here , 3 months there , repeat as necessary thing .

USA better

that's funny

i like that

just read they've proposed to increase the toll for the G. Washington Bridge NY / NJ to $17...!

I would swim first!

that blows

i loved being the first one in an empty car at tesco onnut

shouldn't they have a reality TV show like "all thai jail , all the time" (like "academy fantasia") so smuuglers-to-be can see what's awaiting them ?

what did u have to give to immigration for the statement of residence (500 baht is A LOT cheaper than what the US embassy charges)

thx

nice report ; thx .

environmental problem

doesn't seem to bother all the dogs who live there

environmental mess

actually i hope they leave the drums there along the khlong so they have a harder time turning it into a mall

silly idea

u realize of course that is lang suan like THE most expensive real estate in the city .

if the bike path becomes a road , how long do u think it will take before the road has high rise condos on each side of it ?

sometimes i am surprised lumphini hasn't been paved over (yet) (a la the night bazaar)

the tobacco monopoly is like one of the best pieces of property there ever was , right in the heart of one of the fastest growing cities in the world . how long before that's a mall/malls and hotels...

great post

it's interesting to read the details of a life , financially , going totally wrong while it's actually happening , rather than after ALL the money is gone (like we usually see , hear of ).

Bed Supper Club

that alone is (more than) enough to give it (very) wide passage

Bad...Advice From Legal Firm

i mean , that's not possible is it ?

course , the really interesting thing here is how they (evidently) so easily got out of that jam in pattaya

the lad that got killed was a egular in Hollywood with the people that worked for him.... always showing alot of money and women

ah , the truth (allegedly) comes out

precisely why everyone who knows me thinks i am poor and gay

what's up w/ these (allegedly) violent scandanavians ?

i mean , the guys in abba as well as bjorn borg look so calm and peace loving .

wow ; viscious

wonder how / who he pissed off

great bust

wonder what the penalties and interest are on not paying what u owe in taxes for 16 years ?

curious

where were the grounds for his deportation ?

i know ; it's such a HUGE price to pay (oh wait , there's no charge to report) to be able to stay (legally) in this 82% wondrous country
