worgeordie Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I need to do an extension towards end of April, so I have been on the Chiang Mai Immigration website, to request an appointment. On the website there are 2 choices I think i need the first one "Application form contact the agency request for appointment form." has anyone been successful in obtaining an appointment ?, "Contact the agency", does not mean you have to use an Agent ? Thanks regards Worgeordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try แบบขอยื่นเรื่องเข้าติดต่อหน่วยงาน – CM Immigration Painless, but there is a lag of about a week before an appointment date is given to you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took a sniff today when I went to shop at Rimping, checking out the second floor, between Duke's and Chi Chang. What used to be an Immigration office several years ago was now an empty office space (next to, I believe, an iphone store). So, where is Immigration? Their old spaces on the ground floor? Thanx. Just preparing in case the online reporting doesn't come back in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jonwilly Posted April 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 11, 2021 My sympathy to folks having problems with Thai Immigration. They drove me round the Twist (Old British saying ) years ago. For many years now I have used the services of a Professional Visa Agent here in Chiang Mai. Not expensive but takes the hassle off my shoulders, at my advanced years I do not need *&^*ing about and prefer to let a Pro do the business for me. john 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowadays it's a waste of money as CM Immi is so much more streamlined, friendly, and with fewer clients - For the duration of Covid travel restrictions anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canthai55 Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Using an agent will force people to stop posting (moaning, whining, sniveling) about how the online does not work, where to go to do a 90 day or TM30, Oh No the paperwork, general P and M Of such their Lives are Filled ! 555 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricTh Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Did anyone try to do the online 90 day reporting today? The system seems to be down and the immigration office is closed for many days. This really sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
