1 Year Non O based on marriage.

[Mosha]

My 360 + 90 days are up mid week. Can someone remind me what I need to extend it by 60 days please? 

I'm assuming Fee

Wife's Blue Book + copy

KR 2 or 3 + copy.

2 passport photos.

Copies of passport visa and entry pages 

Application form.

 

Anything else please?

 

 

[ThaidDown]

Wife.

Your wife will need to be with you when you apply.

You wife's original blue house is not required. Just copies of page 1 and the page she is registered on. Also a copy of her ID card.

Only one 4 X 6 cm photo will be needed for TM7 application form.

Copies of your passport photo page, visa, entry stamp and TM6 departure card.

The fee is 1900 baht.

Thanks guys.. I was hoping to leave her home so it doesn't become a shopping trip 555

In which case its going to cost more than 1900 baht.

Well Forget to take Yer Wallet......Easy Peasy !!

[Mosha]

Well it's a good job we went a day early. The officer in Ranong decided she wants photos of us inside and outside the house. No point arguing, it just shows you can't be over prepared.

[Mosha]

Now my wife tells me she wants the map to our house. I'm now convinced this woman doesn't understand what I'm applying for.

[mosan]

They do ask for a map to your residence. And, by the way, you are applying for an "Extension of Stay. Not a Non Immigrant O.

[Mosha]

OK now I have the extension, and as I'm in Ranong I can the do a 30 day run in October. The boss in the office told my wife that if we go back after the 30 days, she'll give me another 60 day extension. Is that right?

Yes that is correct.

The 60 day extension to visit your wife can be applied for with any type of entry.

[Mosha]

Thank you Joe.

I completed my marriage extension yesterday on income alone.

 

I have attached my trials and tribulations should anyone care to read them but be aware that this is for the Khampaeng Phet office.

 

It is nearly 4 pages long.

 

YMMV.

Well written Bill and an endurance test for sure. I really empathise with all that, its a ridiculous situation/process and in my opinion many things are needlessly rigid and could be done far easier.

I was reading another story like this recently where the concluding bundle that required signatures was 62 pages !! absolutely absurd !!

Another that was refused as the exchange rate dipped in the prior few days and took the balance under by literally a few hundred baht !! and was rejected. Heartbreaking and cruel !

Last time I did the annual extension, it took about 4 hours. We could have driven from Ranong to visit my wife's Aunt in Surat Thani. That and the lack of multitasking. A friend wants a chat, everything stops.

We finished at the Immigration office at 11.30 Monday and today at 11.00 3 police came to see if we do actually live here. My wife did most of it and I was in the photo shoots at the end. I didn't have to sign a thing and now they at my wife's shop stuffing themselves for free.

 

Still all's well that ends well.

I live in an area that has a lot of Burmese workers. Every time immigration do a sweep, they visit. Even giving them warm water doesn't put them off.
