It's not that hard. Just don't leave the country. Lay low, draw no attention and hope to avoid those random checks. You can last years that way. Its not the first time I've heard about 10+ years of overstay. The words are that they start out with just a limited time of overstay, for numerous reasons. Then the time flies, they get away with it, and they think it is just too late to fix in a sivil way. They might be a bit embarrassed too, choosing not to think about it, and just hope for the best. The moral side of it, well that's another thing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, from the photo she doesn't look like a dosser and they don't normally do spot checks on random farang (do they?) so possibly someone ratted her out. As our American cousins say. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JustAnotherHun Posted September 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 16, 2021 Overstaying is very silly in the country of smart cars, smart phones, smart cops and smart people. If you want to be a criminal here, better bring a few kilos of heroin to Australia and become a member of the smart government later. 2 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does someone want her "out the way" ? How did her Husband die ? What will happen to their business ? Who will inherit it ? I think it is pretty obvious that the money her cash cow (dead husband) provided the money grabbers dried up thus giving them the opportunity to show what a great job they are doing identifying this highly dangerous person. This may not be a 100% true scenario; but, I would bet a lot of money it's damn close. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I do not condone people who overstay or break the law, this lady is not really a threat to Thailand's security. Correct, what amazes me is how these long overstayers survived financially, without detection. I say good luck to her, and if i was the LOS boss I would grant her residence. Well done I hope you r treated with respect and kindness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronster Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 So they have started wandering the beaches asking every foreigner they see for identification ? Yet blatantly obvious criminals can be seen around the place without having to look to hard , but they are never troubled .

Popular Post Firefan Posted September 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 16, 2021 The re-enactment of the crime will be great: "now pretend to NOT go up to immigration and renew your visa...11 times please!" Also at the follow up meeting on the case: "how the heck did she outsmart the fool proof 90 day report system we have in place for exactly this type of crime!? ????" 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 40 days overstay, the maximum fine is 20,000 baht. Might as well carry on?

Thunglom Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 (edited) the expat community seems rife with illegal immigrants ... but it seems that Thai immigration isn't very good at catching up with them and when they do, they don't seem to understand how to deal humanely with these people. it just makes them look bad. PS - presumably her husband was a foreigner? Edited September 16, 2021 by Thunglom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post james1943 Posted September 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 16, 2021 I was a police officer in America for 28 years and many time you over look a so small misdemeanor because the person really did nothing that bad or did not hurt anyone. This poor lady just lost her husband and now they want to put he into more pain. Let the lady go if the only thing she done wrong was stay with and love her husband till the day he died then felt so lonely and was wondering on the beach that her and husband probably loved. The police are to also protect people also not just arrest good people 10 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
