Retirement extension by proxy (almost).

[The Fugitive]

Have mobility issues so this year my Thai Mrs offered to obtain my extension herself. Appointment made, no queuing, no TM7 required. However, had to nip in afterwards for desk-cam photo. Again no queuing and probably as good as it gets. Anyone managed to totally avoid going?

@colinneil is your man for "mobility issues", hopefully he will be along shortly to answer your question.

OP sometimes your wife can do your extension, sometimes not, it all depends on the individual immigration officer.

I am paraplegic, and my wife has done my extension for me now for 6 years.

For the last 3 years i have gone with her, but am unable to get out of the pickup, but an officer has come out to take my photo, 3 years ago we were told i did not need to go again, my wife could do it.

Now 2 years ago my wife was going to do it herself, i said lets be on the safe side, take me along, and the officer insisted on coming out for my photo.

If you are unable to go to immigration, get a doctors certificate, and your wife can do it alone.

If you need any more help/ info pm me.
