allane replied to connda's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Fourteen days before the due date, or seven days after. -
Seek advice from those more knowledgeable
allane replied to GA19's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Past history is normally irrelevant, as long as it is not "negative past history", such as overstay, blacklisting or deportation. -
Work Permit question (1 job & 1 part time)
allane replied to problemfarang's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
A friend was in this situation. Your employers have done everything correctly. It will not affect the renewal of the W.P. for your full-time job. I would presume you need to pay tax on your part-time earnings, especially since they are in addition to those from your full-time job. -
Retirement Extension - Financial Requirements
allane replied to jnp73's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
It depends where you are. -
Does Immigration really have 35 yrs. of history on their computers ? I have lived here continuously since 1995. As you might guess, there were few computers here then, and few people who knew how to use one. Most computers had dust covers on them most of the time. Bangkok Bank had a German guy at their head office overseeing their computers. My guess would be about 15 yrs. of history at best.

Teaching options - advice appreciated
allane replied to sidneybear's topic in Teaching in Thailand Forum
Contact khurusapha at ksp.or.th Don't waste time seeking opinions from the farangs here. -
Passports are intended for traveller's, not for resident foreigners. When a foreigner leaves, there is a presumption that he will not be returning. If he is planning to return, he needs a Re-entry Permit. As for the charge, well what can I say ? They have their hands out every time we turn around, including for this.

90 day report falling on weekend
allane replied to ross163103's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
As far as I know, when a deadline falls on a weekend or holiday, Thai Immigration will accept you going in on the first business day when they re-open. -
Several yrs. ago I had tennis elbow. After a few days of trying home remedies, I went to a doctor. He prescribed Arcoxia (etoricoxib-MSD). This was a miracle drug. My tennis elbow was gone in an hour. I don't know if it is available without a prescription.

Use of 90 Day extension
allane replied to factseeker's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
The OP has asked two questions: 1. Can he and his wife come in January for 90 days ? 2. Can they return in Sept. to start the 12 mo. visa for the purpose of Retirement ? The answers are "yes" and "yes". I see nothing in his post to indicate that he is somehow trying to get some sort of pre-approval for their 12 mo. Retirement, or that he is seeking a 19 mo. Retirement Visa/Extension. Nor are they seeking to stay continuously fro January to September. -

Sure, no problem. -
Extension/Visa options after divorce
allane replied to lamush's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
After divorce, you have the same options as anyone else. You should be able to get a "parent of Thai child" extension without leaving the country. Divorce does not automatically terminate an extension for marriage. -
I consider the BOT list authoritative on this question. I have never seen it proven to be incorrect.

Retirement Visa - Changing Bank Accounts?
allane replied to HugoFastor's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I always keep all bankbooks which have become full for at least one year after the date of the last transactions. This is one of the reasons why. -
When I changed my reason for extension from Employment to Retirement (Surin 2018), I was given a one month Under Consideration stamp. Maybe they wanted to verify my financials with my bank ? I got a Re-entry Permit and travelled out of Thailand. Returning two days before my due date, I got a very quizical look at Bangkok Airport. I told them I was on my way to Surin to finish my Extension, and everything was OK. Just make sure you are back in time to go to Immigration on your designated Return Date.

From the basement of Suwanaphum Airport, take the Airport Link train all the way to the other end of its route, Phayathai station. (Running time, 30 min.) Exit the station at its east end. Board a southbound bus for the 10 minute ride to MBK. Some of the routes that come to mind are 29, 34 and 36. There are probably others. You could also board a southbound BTS (skytrain) at Phayathai, ride 2 stations south to Siam,, change trains and board a westbound BTS train there and ride one station west to National Stadium, which is a 2 - 3 min. walk from MBK>

Can Anyone Help Me Name Whatever Afflicted Me ?
allane replied to allane's topic in Health and Medicine
Sheryl, I greatly appreciate your reply. I have no idea what a rheumatologist does ! I live in Bangkok, west of the river. Someone west of the river would be nice, but I can travel if necessary.
