True, but unfortunately, there are many news services, groups, organizations etc. around the world not to mention apps like Telegram and many others.

Red vs Blue in the New Civil War! The Divided States of America! If Real News is not to your liking or fits your narrative, then you call it Fake News! How can you REALLY tell what news is real or fake??????????????? Everyone quotes it for their own narrative beliefs. Crazy world that is truly polarizing everybody and governments controlling all their citizens. Good luck world!!

These two are the best America has to offer?? America bites the dust!! They will have to move the White House to either a Nursing Home or a Mental Institution or both!!

Hubert Humphrey! I know not a past president but a Vice President.

My question to you is how long and how difficult was it for you to get a visa for your wife and also what kind did you get? Thanks

I received my 2024 COLA letter from the SSA yesterday here in Khon Kaen. Of course, I already knew the amount because of the 03 January payment. I do use this for proof of income to Immigration.

Hell, I'm more pissed that my 12-15 baht kiwi went to over 30 baht!! Geez

The only good thing about Starbucks is that they have decaf coffee. I know decaf sucks and Thais have no clue what that is, but unfortunately some people can't have caffeine due to health reasons.

Not everyone is able to self insure!

When did they bring back New York style? They stopped many months ago and it's not available here in Khon Kaen.

Just went to confirm my details and it was very easy. All I had to do was confirm that my name and address was the same. Said they will contact me if they need anything else. Glad it was that easy as I always worry something will go wrong as some people have had a tough process to go through.

Thanks for your reply. Do they give you an option to pause the confirmation process in case you need to get something later to submit? It seems many people get many different requests to confirm. What country are you from? Thanks again

I just received an email from Wise saying that I need to confirm my personal details by 15 January. Did anybody else receive this type of email and what details do I have to confirm and what pictures or copies will I need to send them? I would like to know in advance so I can prepare and be ready and not have any issues. Thank you in advance.

I buy this on Lazada and Shopee but as Sheryl says, you can use IHerb as well. I use all three with absolutely no problems, but IHerb is very cheap.

They are doing great business because of the price. How can they pay big claims at those prices and with no increase in premiums? Also, have you seen or heard of any big claims being paid? The nail in the coffin for me is that all the Thai officers resigned here in Thailand, shouldn't that be a warning to everybody?? Good luck but remember the old saying, if it's too good to be true, it probably is.

When did you actually receive your second mailing?

Has anyone had any experience with Zurich-Coris Health Insurance and/or with April Assistance? Thank you

Thank you for your help.

Thanks for your info. We don't plan to relocate, so a 10 year tourist visa would be fine. How long does a 10 year tourist visa give you for each visit to the US? Also, how do you apply for the 10 year tourist visa and how long does it take to get? She does have her 2 year green card to show. Thanks for your help and time!!

My wife and son are going to the Khon Kaen passport office to get their Thai passport renewed. Do they have to bring a passport photo or does the office do it for them? Thank you

What visa did you apply for? I know you said 10 year multiple entry, but what paperwork do you need? How long did it take? Did you have to show financial information? I ask, because I have a unique situation and want to know what is the easiest and fastest way I can get a visa and what type. I brought my wife to the USA on a B-1 visa in 2006. We got married in Vegas in February. She got her 2 year green card but we left 5 months short before should could get her 20 year green card. We moved to Thailand in 2008 and have never been back. I am 70 years old, my wife is 57 years old. We have a son together that was born in Thailand but has dual citizenship. Thanks so much for your help and time.

I'm not sure, so this will be of little help, but I think it takes a long time and a nightmare of paperwork. Good luck.

Didn't mean to spark a debate on Swift codes. What I meant to say and should have said is that if you are direct depositing your SS to a US bank or a foreign bank located in the US, the SSA only uses routing numbers. If you're using the IDD method to send directly to your bank located in a foreign country, then the SSA uses Swift codes.

Thanks for your reply. The Bangkok Bank in NY uses a routing number and only foreign banks uses SWIFT. Bangkok Bank's NY office is considered a US bank and when you deposit there, it is then transferred to your bank account in Thailand. I am almost positive that if you have a Thai address registered with SS, you can't change your banking information with your online account as well. If anyone with a Thai address has changed the banking info online to a bank here in Thailand, please let me know. There is only two ways to change if you live in Thailand with a Thai address, go the Manila route or call the 800 number in the US. Thanks again.
