Popular Post JaydenL Posted November 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 13, 2021 Hi there, I am writing this post just to see any options I have. I came to Thailand in January 2020 with a visa made in Laos, this was my first visa run. At that point, pandemic started, as we all know, there was a visa amnesty, later replaced with CoViD-19 extensions, which I relied on. That said, I've used all my CoViD-19 extensions, the other one is running out on the 20th of November. I know that currently there's another extension announced which would give me time until the end of January, but I am completely upset after reading many denial reports and knowing that I've stayed here for so long. I also know that even if I get one, it'd be a short term solution, unless another extension is announced, but again, even if it is, the foreigners who do not like people like me "playing with the system" just constantly increase stress by saying that such extensions are optional, and anyone can be denied. I am just looking for a long term solution to stay in Thailand, I am building a family here, I am in a relationship, I am young, and I do not qualify for any kind of type of visa. Previously, I thought using visa run now and then, possibly sometimes staying in another country for some period of time. During these times, traveling for me, unvaccinated (I do not plan to vaccinate as long as I can), is barely possible. I just want to stay in Thailand. I am currently short of funds also, so I cannot spend a lot of money for about 2 months when my major projects start (I work as a freelancer online), so I am not free to choose whatever I want to do or go wherever. I feel rather suicidal, I have no options as before free to travel and return to Thailand, recent limitations of PayPal were announced (this is my primary source to receive funds), I have no visa options inside of the country, because of my age and my status, feels like my dreams are broken and I have no options to stay here, but also have no idea how I would leave, and I have no one in my home country, while I have my friends here and my life partner. I have no motivation to think to do something, other than overstaying if nothing works, which will basically just jail me in case anything wrong happens and I get caught on at least one day of overstay, I do not want to live in this stress also. I do not see any legal way for me to stay, because with each extension, I can be denied, and they are only announced every 2 months. I feel like this life is just not worth living in my situation, I don't see any exit point, and it feels like every 2 months I get an extension that I am paying for is some sort of a grace provided by the immigration who can always deny my request. I felt I just wanted to stay here yearly and extend, but every way of doing this is illegal by getting something like a volunteer visa for 60k baht that is too expensive for me. I just want some advice, as I can't take this stress anymore. What can I do while being in country to get a "legal" status, that is, if I want to stay here long term, without getting an elite visa or getting into potential black market scams with volunteer visas? What about an ED visa? I also heard it's impossible to get it while in-country. I am really upset, and I'm sorry for everyone who doesn't want people like me to stay in Thailand, because probably because they have advantage over people like me, poor, just wishing to be where I want to be, hate me because I am using the way to stay here "illegally", it's really upsetting to read comments that you should get out of the country, you had plenty of time to get out of here, it's been a while, but I am using this method just to stay here, not because there are no airplanes home or so, I do not have home, this is my home already, it's just that. All this bureaucracy, it destroys me. 1 3 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DrJack54 Posted November 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 13, 2021 (edited) Calm down OP easy to say when your stressed. However you can obtain another covid extension and hopefully another late January. That will give you time to consider next steps. Also at some point borders will open. You are entitled to a covid extension even if you have had some previously. Edited November 13, 2021 by DrJack54 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Jack, it's always a pleasure to read your positive comments about possible extensions and supporting the ones in this situation. I think if the land borders were open, I would have more options to leave and consider re-entering via land borders, it's now just the only way to leave is to fly out, but I don't even know where and start my life from scratch leaving everything that I've built so far. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post tonray Posted November 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 13, 2021 I am concerned about the 'suicidal' comment. Please don't do anything rash. As Dr. Jack stated you likely do not have an immediate issue...the bigger concern is your longer term planning. Without a valid reason to stay, eventually your border run plans will not work in your goal of building a future for your family. What about trying to find meaningful work with a proper work permit which would allow you to stay on legally without the hurdles ? I know you don't want to sacrifice your online freelance dreams but building a family and a future for them is all about sacrifice not immediate gratification of what you might want. Good luck to you. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to you. I previously wanted to work as a teacher here. I did not finish my degree, so I don't have a diploma to prove I could work here, so I didn't get a work permit, although I work as an online teacher due to my high efforts. I didn't graduate, because it was just not challenging enough. I asked if I could work without any wage also, and this was not reasonable to ask really. I love teaching, but in any case I would be required to have a diploma to do it, as my skills are not enough to do it and "legalize". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understood...but please don't take this the wrong way..but if you want to better your future and take care of your family and their future....get done what needs to be done, graduate, get a diploma and many more options will be open to you. If you were a single, unattached guy, I'd say throw your hat in the ring and let the chips fall as you try to hit the jackpot but it sounds like you have others to take care of and that is why you need to put your dreams off for now and get some real concrete plans in place. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right, thank you so much for your comments and being realistic in this situation. I just know that people previously used ED visas, which I don't mind, as I actually would love learning specific things, but currently it doesn't seem doable, at least without leaving the country first. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post USEpat Posted November 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 13, 2021 You're young, you've got a family here, you're apparently healthy (so far), and you've got a Visa problem. It's Thailand - there are always VIsa problems and always ways to fix them. Agree with the suggestion that you're up for one or two more COVID extensions. Agree with the fellow who suggests you get your credentials finished - it's silly not to have a degree and expect to be hired as a teacher. Not being vaccinated is a limiting decision - where you go, what you do and puts your health at risk. Why do that? There's always the old, reliable marriage Visa................which means you have to marry the young woman. Can't be that bad, eh? And removes all the stress with so many loose ends. Tomorrow's another day. Get a plan. Make a list. Take one step-at-a-time. Small steps are OK as long as their headed in a useful direction. Good luck. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding the marriage visa, as far as I know, I have to season 400k baht in a bank account for a few months before I could be eligible for it? Is that correct?

But the ways to fix them cost money, and he says he doesn't have the 60k for a volunteer visa.

I am okay with that price for an ED visa, but I'm thinking if I could do it while still in country? I'm Bangkok-based. Previously before CoViD, we had to leave the country to get it.

Popular Post MrMilk Posted November 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 13, 2021 I wouldn't worry to much about the Covid extension. As Jack says its very likely going to continue for several more months. Even if you get denied at your current immigration office you can always travel to another office and try again. As long the government continue issuing them you will be able to stay legally in Thailand (even if it involves some extra travel/hassle). What you need to focus your time and energy on is making money. Or finding a way that can make you more money. Finding a extra income online is more than possible. Without money its just a matter of time before you either have to leave or end up in trouble. Be creative (but stay within the law of course). Your mental state sounds tiring. Maybe its a idea to do some searching online and see if you can find (free) support or just someone to talk to. There is helplines where you can reach out and have a chat for free. Maybe a suitable forum or similar can be an idea. Sometimes it helps just to vent a bit. Workout or simply having a long walk can give short-term relief. Write down a plan so you have it all in front of you. What to do on a day to day basis to get in a better position by early 2022. Good luck in turning things around! 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oblomov Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 We've all been young here too and many faced with the same problems, I know I have, and you're not alone in having issues about visas. I don't know where you're from originally but the friends I know that didn't get their visas extended were those that could fairly easily fly back to their countries. If you have that partner you feel so strongly about, go for it and get married and then at least you get yourself on a footing you can work from. I know how you feel as i had to leave so often in the past due to work in my home country and visas etc., but you're too young to be so desperate so find a way. It's almost impossible to nip around like many of us did before, with months on Bali, then months in Thailand, with many quick and relatively easy land border options to renew visas. I hope you find a way, as you shouldn't be feeling like this at your age but I do understand it. Making it official with your partner must be your best option I think Good luck buddy 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I'm strongly focused on currently, I'm trying to save funds for any worst case scenario now. I'm just thinking if it's a verbal denial, I can definitely try another office, even though I never had any comments regarding all of my previous extensions, I think it's just that a lot of stories and comments induce that type of fear really. However, if I get stamped, I heard there would be no other option, but close that under consideration stamp by fulfilling specific requirements, such as buying an outbound ticket, at the same office. Thanks for your suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just that now traveling is not so easy anymore, quarantine rules, entry requirements, it's hard to predict, as well as apply for all the formal documents, getting an insurance and so on. I just wish it was different, maybe it would take some time to make it easier. That's why I hope there would be some sort of leniency regarding the current extensions. I think I could go home easily, it's just that I would probably feel more depressed there with no close people around me, just starting my life over.

I dotted around SE Asia for 25+ years but as you say the times have changed. I guess you're in your 20s right? i first moved to Asia when I was 25 but kept some freelance work in London and Ireland. Wouldn't that work for you for a while? Some time in your own country to work and save then head back to Asia and feel more secure that you can feel relaxed there. I had many terrible departures from Asia in the early years but in time, that way of life becomes normal and you can build your savings and feel more secure. Thailand can seem like this paradise that's hard to leave, as i often felt like that about Bali. Talking of Bali, there is a vibrant and young digital nomad community there and if you're on the list of 19 or so countries that are allowed in, it's very cheap this time of year it being monsoon season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, in this particular situation I'm thinking if I could do something to switch to a long-term opportunity while still in country rather than leaving it to make matters worse. Sometimes I am thinking this way too, but as you said, it just feels too hard to leave when you are already here. Thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Pravda Posted November 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 13, 2021 You don't have any future in Thailand. Harsh, but true. I would marry the lady you are with and bring her back to your country. You could have wiggled this lifestyle say 10 years ago, but this pandemic will never end which will make your stay in Thailand impossible. And before someone accuses me of being an a$$ I just want to let you know that I also went through total loss of online income during pandemic. My main source for years was amazon and closure of PayPal is also affecting me. Fortunately my wife helped me a lot through this as she has a an excellent job and I saved enough money to sustain me for many years here. We also have our own place in Bangkok. My backup plan was also teaching and I have a degree. But even with this I don't see future here for myself. We are leaving this country. It doesn't take a genius to predict the future. Think seriously about healthcare and how much it will cost you. Think about how difficult the life in Thailand will be with increased requirements. Check what Malaysia did and expect the same or worse in Thailand. Don't waste your life here. It's really pointless. 8 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure you are right, I feel like the requirements each month will just start to be harsher until it's just not possible to plan or do anything. I was wondering, do you use PayPal Thailand? I am still not certain whether I could access my PayPal that has no affiliations with Thailand other than using my Thai number? Like if I get paid in USD and withdraw to a US bank account, should I be worried in any way? Should I change my number from Thai to an European one? I still can't find any information if I'm considered a PayPal Thailand user, since my PayPal doesn't have anything Thai in it other than a number. Thanks for this if you think you could clarify.

You need to get rid of the conspiracy theory mindset about vaccines first. Become part of responsible society and again opportunities will open up. Unvaccinated people will not have the same opportunities...forget teaching in Thai schools, degree or not.

Well you're going to have to get vaccinated as there will be no travel options without it and certainly if you left unvaccinated you would not be getting back in that way. The AZ vaccine was built on a platform that's been used to develop and tweak flu vaccines for decades, so you should not have this fear of being poisoned - it's going to be mandated to do almost anything going forward so I don't think that's something that can be avoided. They might even require you to be vaccinated for a visa renewal based on the Covid situation so you should check that. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read some mainly on Thai Visa Advice Facebook group, the largest one, the most prominent is for someone who had two extensions from Malaysia, and was given a verbal denial asking to present an outbound flight ticket in 7 days to grant him another extension, or find another job position.

There are too many farangs that are taking advantage from it Edited November 13, 2021 by Jack1988 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
