I don't want to tie up 800K in a bureaucratic dog & pony show. The marriage extension over the last few years takes me an afternoon to put the paperwork together (I'm good at it now), and an hour at our rural Thailand Immigration office where my wife knows about half of the IO's. IF I ever decide to work again, I can obtain a work permit. It's really not that much of a hassle. Many people here make the process of applying for an extension based on marriage more difficult then it really is. However, I understand that some Immigration Offices purposefully make it a PITA. Thankfully I go to an Immigration office where they have a really good-hearted, decent staff of IOs, and I truly appreciate their professionalism.
