Would a business not need to show significant activity/profits? Or do they only care about the salary you take out?

The revenue department would want to see a profit but you could easily lose money the 1st couple years.

Anyone know how long it would take after the oath to ID on an average?

Seems to be happening every last week of the month, which would make the next one in 3 weeks.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, looks like there was an update to laws published in the RG on 30 July regarding applying for Thai citizenship. In addition to some more administrative hoops to jump through, such as attaining the pink ID card, a major change seems to be the added requirement to have lived in Thailand for no less than 10 years. No mention about length of stay for those married to Thai citizens. If someone knows better than me, please enlighten us. Thanks!

That pink non Thai ID, although useless, takes about 10 min to get, as already got the house book.

I'd guess that all gong for citizenship the PR route have lived in Thailand 10+ years.

In case anyone is interested, I've attached the announcement.

These are the changes that I consider important:

 

1 (1) Applicant has to submit a copy of the pink card

1 (2) Applicants have to submit a certificate [I don't understand this but think it is a medical certificate of sorts:] หนังสือรับรองความเป็นคนไร้รากเหง้า
1 (3) Applicant has to prove that they have been in the Kingdom not less than 10 years. [They are giving a list of examples how you can prove that.]

1 (4) Proof that the applicant appreciates the democratic monarchy, for example if they have contributed to society [I am not sure what that means]

2, 2.2 Three character witnesses who can also confirm that the applicant has been in the kingdom for at least 10 years [seems like a duplication of 1 (3), but I think the point here is that 1.3 is an objective proof, and 2.2 shows that you have long-term personal relationships. It also used to be 2 character witnesses, now it's 3.]

Where did you see that? What sentence did I miss?

ไร้รากเหง้า is stateless. And the second requirement of 10 years residence is keep mentioning the childs. So I am assuming it's specific for stateless childs. (Like the famous cave ones)

No exactly. 6 months ago it used to be in the middle of the month. Remember you posted in March: "2019 First meeting was on 18 Jan and 2nd was on 15 Feb 2019 and 3rd was on 14 March" (this one being a Thursday). So frequently on a Friday -but not always- and only very recently handled at the end of the month.

I had my interview in May of this year, so I am still waiting.

I have no idea if it makes any difference, but for reference, I had 78 points.

That seems very high. I got about 52, due to my low Thai salary mainly.  Maybe also as I changed my yellow house book just before applying.

Yesterday my wife checked with my case officer in SB

today he informed interview call will be April - may - June 2020

My documents were forward to MOI on 10 august 2018 after completing 1 year 10 August 2019 , we start follow up with our case incharge.
Total time now 16 Months since start Process,
Documents Send to MOI total time now 1 Year.

FYI

Thanks
